Background
I've been contributing to the free software community for the past 20 years.

Today I maintain several software projects working with Python and XMPP.

Projects
I maintain a large number of freely licensed XMPP packages, notably;


 * mod_xmpp, an XMPP over WebSocket module for Apache HTTPd
 * LightMelody, an modern replacement for Loudmouth (same LM_ prefix) using GObject/GIO
 * NodeTree, an XML data binding package for Python which supports XMPP stream processing

Over the last year I've done an increasing amount of WebRTC and mobile networking work.

Community

 * Lead for Python XML-SIG
 * Mentor students working on XMPP-related projects
 * Present on XMPP (lightning talks, poster sessions, workshops, etc)

Why I want to renew my membership
I'd like to continue to serve the XSF community.
