Projects

For many years I have advocated the 30 hour day because I feel the current one simple hasn't enough hours in it. I'm constantly coming up with new ideas for projects that I just haven't got the time to do or finnish. This page is here so I can't remember them all, and I announce them to the world so there is some pressure for me to actually get them done too.

My projects and to do list

  • gucwit - Windows Installer Tool. Basicly a simple "yum for windows" tool to help sys.admins maintain install and update packages on a set of Microsoft Windows computers. Almost ready to publish.
  • wpkg - I have contributed a few patches to the wpkg open source project, but I have a few ideas for improvements that I should have sat down, implemented, and submitted. Not started.
  • scim - My (in)famous Simula compiler written in Python. It will be done soon I promise! Grammar, lexing and parsing is working.
  • goodnews-ng - goodnews' source code isn't really very written, and is badly in need of a rewrite. Initial coding started.
  • hevn-ng - Gjøvik University College has it's own home grown PIM called HEVN, but it's old and buggy, and needs an update. We plan to give it a new backend to use open well documented protocols like LDAP, ical, CalDAV/GroupDAV, IMAP, and jabber. In planning stage.
  • py-imapfilter - I really need a client side tool to filter my remote IMAP mailbox, and I want it to support Sieve. Not started.
  • pywatch - The mail notification tools based on the xwatch program from Department of Informatics, University of Oslo. Alpha version is working and usable.
  • ijkd - The Idle Job Killer Daemon modeled after the IJK2 program from Department of Informatics, University of Oslo. Ready for prodution testing.
  • isdn2voip - Make a simple VOIP router for my ISDN wireless phone, so I can cut my expensive phone bill. All ready, just need to actually build it.
  • sievelib - a sieve filter compiler/interpreter and library written in python. Parser is written, and interpreter started
