Perl Modules released

March 5th, 2007

I wrote some Perl modules a while back and have always meant to release them to the general community. I haven’t had time to do all that is required to get them up to CPAN yet (namely write tests), but here is the first step. See the “Software by Tom” page.

I expect to release one or two more additional projects soon.

Portland Project 1.0 released

October 12th, 2006

This week the Portland Project released version 1.0. (I spent the summer in Portland working on this.) Linux User & Developer magazine is publishing an article (pdf) in this month’s issue about the Portland effort. This summer we also noticed that Google picked up a pre-release version for their beta release of Google Earth for Linux.

Update: Living in Portland

August 6th, 2006

I have been living in Portland OR for the summer. Intel has hired me to work on the Portland Project, a cross desktop framework for Linux.

I have posted some photos of various activities. (UPDATE: Gallery is broken at the moment and I don’t have time to deal with it.)

Welcome!

The site is mostly done with its overhaul. The layout is XHTML/CSS rather than a table mess. I’ve finally got Wordpress customized to my satisfaction. Of course now that the semester has started, I doubt that I’ll have much time to post here, but the background work is done.

I still intend to post some info about projects I am currently working on, as well as those I’ve finished with.
