Projects:

• Random KDE: This semester I have been doing random work with KDE.
  • FuseISOMount: A small "Service Menu" for KDE's Konqueror that allows for right click mounting of ISO images via FUSE and FUSEISO. It can be found at KDE-Apps.org
  • KDE 10 Years KSide: A small KSide (the graphic alongside the K-Menu in KDE) that I made to celebrate KDE's 10th Birthday. It can be found at KDE-Look.org
  • Icy Shatter: A random wallpaper I made while playing with The GIMP. It can be found at KDE-Look.org


• Ruby: This summer saw me really get into Ruby. In addition to doing a presentation on Ruby for the COSI, I have also been working on a bunch of applications.
  • The Highly Experimental Ruby Shell (THERuSH): The product of me being bored during the summer, THERuSH is my ongoing experiment to see if I can write a system shell akin to Bash and Zsh. Its current release is 0.9 and is registered with RubyForge. Its project page can be found here
  • RuPac: This is in more of an experiemental state, though I have registered it with RubyForge. RuPac my aim to create a library to interface with ArchLinux's Pacman package manager. Although Pacman 3 will provide C binding that I can wrap Ruby around, this will still be useful for Pacman prior to version 3. This is also a stepping stone on my way to create a so called "Grand Unified Package Manager Frontend". The project page can be found Here
