Who am I?

246... no.

I do some coding for the Source code project. I also help out with forum support, and write the coding section of the HLP newsletter.

I'm most interested in:

  • Supporting Linux
  • Improving the robustness of the codebase (e.g. see Coverity / Address Sanitiser / PVS studio)
  • Fixing bugs
  • Code reviews to get other peoples features added to FSO, i.e. maintain their momentum (although I feel that this really turns my brain to mush if I do it for too long :))
  • git :D

The areas of the code I'm most familiar with are:

  • New pilot code (antipodes 8 / 3.7.0+)
  • HUD gauges
  • ETS

Features I'd most like to add to FSO are:

(TODO: make this a table with what/why/how columns)

Short Term

Review patches in these threads:

Fix this issue - not really a bug, maybe a feature?

Get the FONT code reviewed

Consider this

Dump pilot file data (.csg & .plr) as JSON to make debugging pilot file issues easier (and it may lead to using JSON for the real pilot files in future)

memory overflow

  • git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%an%x09%ad%x09%s" --date=short --after=2014-01-31
