Packaging
As the packaging stuff changes very often, I don't have a complete list here. You might take a look at my LP related software page or Debian QA page to see all packages I maintain/work on.
Major packaging tasks:
Packaged the complete projectM music visualizer. (Was a pain to get it working on all machines :P)
Brought PackageKit to Debian, contributed some of the last blocking parts. Now maintaining the PackageKit components together with Michael Vogt and Julian Andres Klode.
- Various stuff to make packaging of applications developed in Pascal easier
- Contributions to KDE packaging
- Packaged debconf-kde for Debian and made it ready for use with Muon and Apper
- Multimedia stuff like easyMp3Gain etc...
Projects & Plans
Some projects
Listaller - Cross-distribution software installer/manager based on PackageKit
- QAppInstall - Software-Store for Kubuntu (has been dropped since we now have Muon, which is far better than my approach)
LibDanceTag - A library to fetch dance information for songs
Goals
Make 3rd-party software installation on all Linux distributions as easy & secure as possible
- Fix more KDE bugs
- Improve the common ground KDE and GNOME share by actively helping Freedesktop Projects
Convince people to change APT repository format to include component-provides and AppInstall information, so we can remove the app-install-data package or make it much smaller.
More work on PackageKit
