This is a Redmine powered web site hosting my free open source projects. For launching it I created a theme as well as many plugins which I believed would be useful for sites like this. Everything I’m using here is shared and available for download and use.

The main reason for creating this web site was perhaps my Orangutan project. The site also shares Jabberd14 plugins, DokuWiki plugins and a CD cataloging tool. For the full list of my projects go to this page.

I’m a Linux software developer, a Linux system administrator and a designer. I specialize in Linux system programming and web development. My preferred programming languages are: C, JavaScript, Perl, PHP and Ruby.
