I work on lots of free software projects, usually related to Linux, POSIX, C, systems, and graphics.

My values include:

• Portability to the relevant standards (POSIX, ISO C, ...)
• Simplicity, meaning code that is easy for someone unfamiliar to understand and make changes, without dependencies that don't have this property.
• Correctness and robustness.
• Fixing problems at the source, rather than working around them, even if it means more work.
• Licensing software so anyone can use it for any purpose (i.e. MIT/BSD/ISC).

My current projects include:

• samurai: a small reimplementation of the ninja build tool in C for POSIX systems.
• sbase: I am the maintainer of this collection of portable UNIX tools.
• cproc: a C11 compiler aiming to build a large amount of code found in the wild.
• oasis: a linux distribution, probably more similar to a BSD, that combines a bunch of light-weight software alternatives into a complete system.
• libtls-bearssl: an implementation of libtls using BearSSL
• swc: a small wayland compositor framework, much lighter on code and dependencies compared to the alternatives.
• velox: a dwm clone built on top of swc

I also contribute to a variety of other projects including qbe, musl, and many others.

My work on oasis also has many further reaching effects. I regularly send patches to essential linux system software to ensure that they follow the relevant standards and work with alternative implementations of tools and libraries. Examples:

• Changed some linux kernel build scripts to use more portable shell scripts and tool invocations.
• Changed objtool, used in the linux kernel build, to support linking with libelf from elftoolchain.
• Added support for BearSSL to curl.
• Countless patches to many other projects fixing ISO C conformance issues.
