Software
I'm a computer scientist by trade and contrary to the beliefs of some, this means that I need to know how to code. Sometimes this is research and other times its just for fun or practice. Listed below are some of the projects I am working on, or have worked on:

Apache JMeter
My first real contribution to Open Source software. Its a load tester for web sites and more. I used it at work and then became the co-maintainer for awhile. I drifted away after my return to graduate school

Quake2 on Un*x
I'm the maintainer for the port of the GPL'd source of Id Software's game Quake 2. I also ported it to MacOS X which is kind of half Un*x ;-).

Concentration for PalmOS
I wanted to learn how to use the prc-tools toolset to develop applications for Palm Pilot. I sort of feel that if you are going to own a gadget you ought to be able to program for it.
Anyway this is the traditional concentration card game available in solitaire, vs. Human or vs. Computer modes, hope you enjoy!

Missile Command for PalmOS
This is an homage to the Macintosh 128k game of the same name. Destroy the missiles before they destroy your cities.
