Background
I've been contributing to the free software community for the past 14 years, my earliest involvement was running the #Redhat help channel on Undernet and various network management scripts.
Today I'm an active member of the Ubuntu project, a frequent volunteer in the Python community, and co-founder of the Copyleft Games Group.
Contributions
- Maintainer of three copyleft projects that work with XMPP;
- PySoy, a copyleft 3d game engine. The engine's included networking support is being based around XMPP for player chat and server discovering, Jingle ICE-UDP for network games.
- Concordance, an in-development XMPP service framework for Python 3.0
- Freeform 2, an XMPP/BOSH-based webapp framework and CMS for Python 3.0 being developed along with Concordance
- Has presented and promoted XMPP within the Python community (recent example)
- Heavily advocates XMPP's use in games and is working on a spec for out-of-band server advertising based on pubsub and MUC
Why I want to join
Because more than one person has asked me why I haven't yet. Membership or lack thereof has no effect on the work I do or the degree to which I contribute to XEPs in the future.
