Hi all,
Just curious. Among all the emails about _using_ OSS, how many people here _produce_ OSS?
My judgement was that it was off-topic - hence new thread. I stand by that.
I think the problem is that you didn't start a new thread by writing a new email, you hit reply to another message, so everyone's mail client filed your new message as a reply (due to the following headers):
In-reply-to: <6.2.1.2.2.20050404154755.03500408(a)pulsar.net.nz> References: <200504041545.05208.sns(a)paradise.net.nz>
Anyway, I've been a developer of the greenstone digital library/text indexing software, written a program that works with cheap dick smith electronics webcams that don't otherwise work under linux (since they lack the hardware to convert the raw image formats to a decent format), and submitted bug fixes and patches to several packages. I also have a bunch of programs that I've been meaning to make publicly available if I ever find time to tidy them up, and one day I might release the software I developed for my thesis (for doing recognition of scanned sheet music).
