1246I have been a professional programmer for 20 years, with most of that time
1247spent doing UNIX/C/C++ hacking. My specialties are (in no particular
1248order): system/kernel hacking, speech recognition, perl, object-oriented
1249design and analysis, FSF software (I have built nearly every FSF package on
1250several different platforms), small language design and implementation, and
1251HTML/web programming. Currently I'm a member of the XEmacs and egcs beta
1252teams. My rates vary from $60 - $100 per hour, depending on the size of the
1253project.

785Experience:
786 I have B.A. and M.A. degrees in Computer Science and have completed
787 all but the dissertation for a Ph.D. in C.S. My research for my
788 Ph.D. is in the areas of logic, type systems, and programming
789 language theory. My primary programming languages are Emacs Lisp,
790 Perl, and Bourne shell, but of course I can program in any language.
791 I have written numerous Emacs Lisp packages. I started the USENET
792 "List of Frequently Asked Questions about GNU Emacs with Answers" and
793 maintained it for more than two years. Most of my work has been
794 related to the telephone system (modems, voice mail, etc.), but I am
795 not limited to that. Send e-mail for my complete resume or curriculum
796 vita.

810 Boston or via the Internet or via telephone; travel outside the Boston
811 metropolitan area can be negotiated. My schedule is very flexible.
812 Any programs I write will normally have the copying conditions of the
813 GNU General Public License; this is negotiable.
1524I would like to provide unpaid support for the following things:

825I'm a better "planner" than I am a hacker. A really good hacker will be able
826to keep many pieces of information in their short-term memory and to memorize
827new pieces of information at a fast rate. This is not my strong point.
828Rather, I excel in domains that require knowledge of the slightly more
829theoretical parts of computer science --for example, logic, formal methods of
830program development, and functional programming. I can write, and I have
831"tutoring" (teaching one-on-one) experience, an, unlike some programmers,
832I enjoy doing these things.
1538I can install GNU software, customize it, fix bugs, answer questions,
1539and teach.
833
1540
834I have spend a lot of time looking at the Emacs Lisp sources and customizing
835Emacs and VM. I think I can customize Emacs and its packages quickly and
836effectively.
1541I am fluent in C, emacs lisp, Bourne shell, and awk. I also have a
1542good understanding of automake and autoconf.

1544I have modified identd, cvs, and ftpd to change their security
1545procedures; I have modified the GNU fileutils to understand new flag
1546bits that were added to the Hurd. I have been involved in developing
1547Hurd translators. Long ago, I worked on developing a web browser;
1548that project was eventually killed, but I learned a lot in the
1549process.
1550
1551I am experienced in webmastering and system administration.
