I'm Donal Fellows, a maintainer of Tcl and member of the Tcl Core Team. I've also got a reasonable amount of experience with Java and C, and I'm fairly familiar with quite a few others. (looks at language box...) OK, a lot of others. (I also know HTML, CSS and XML fairly well, but don't consider them to be programming languages.)
I work at the University of Manchester, where I'm a Senior Software Engineer supporting Research Computing university-wide. My focus is currently on supporting preservation of extremely large datasets in digital libraries, and I'm using Taverna 2 Server to do this (which I wrote).
Rosetta Code Projects
- Maintenance of the coverage of Tcl and quality of its examples
- It is my aim to make sure that Tcl is a participant in every task possible (including the “hard” ones) and that for all others it is clearly marked as not participating. At time of writing, there are only two non-participations...
- Every Tcl example must be clear, as short as possible, and informative. They must also be written well (formatting, syntax, grammar, etc.)
- General maintenance of pages through wikignoming
- Contribution of new tasks. My criteria are that the task should be possible in multiple languages and either part of a set of related tasks or illustrative of a feature that should be widely known of. Currently authored tasks:
- Sutherland-Hodgman polygon clipping
- Hough transform
- Accumulator Factory
- Wireworld
- Verify Distribution Uniformity with Chi-Squared Test
- Pendulum Animation
- Named Arguments
- Standard Deviation
- Basic Animation
- Mode
- Median
- Common number base parsing
- Unknown Method
- Client-Authenticated HTTPS Request
- HTTPS Request
- Print a Stack Trace
- Echo Server
Misc. Maintenance Tools
Is there anybody out there?
