Some Assembly, C and Bash Scripting here ;-)

Pet past projects have been LinuxBios and a half-butt programing project
called Dsctl on sf.net.  Dsctl partially works, but I don't have any
time to invest in any of these projects these days, nor the will power
to complete Dsctl -- project was almost complete too.

Since I just bought a house a year ago, I've been pushing a lot of time
during the summer into it trying to get everything done.  During the
winter months are when I have some time for tinkering, but the way it
seems, I'm going to have lots of work around the house.  So at most,
I've just been maintaining two servers & a laptop here with Gentoo and
filing bugs.

BTW, SVN works wonderfully.  Learned it while working with LinuxBios.
SVN makes checkouts & submitting patches extremely easy! 


Future learning, might be invested into Python or finessing my C skills.
