Contributions
Real-time multimedia communications and VoIP
I have been actively working to enable real-time communications (VoIP, video and IM) using free software. Making such free solutions as easy to deploy as possible, by packaging them for the major Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora.
As an upstream developer, I have put significant effort in to making reSIProcate suitable for packaging in Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, including a complete overhaul of the build system (it now uses autotools) reSIProcate on launchpad
Documenting how real-time multimedia communications can be implemented on major Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, on the Real-time communications (RTC) quick start guide
I have updated VoIP information on the Ubuntu wiki to integrate with the current state of these projects
Financial software
Much of my professional experience is in financial services, with a focus on front office trading and connectivity solutions.
I have been active in packaging some of the leading open source financial software products, including:
OpenMAMA, the real-time messaging and market price data distribution system open-sourced by NYSE
PostBooks, a comprehensive small business accounting, CRM and ERP solution with a multi-user Qt-based GUI, using PostgreSQL as the backend
Other projects
Please see this page for a more detailed overview of the free software projects I contribute to across a range of platforms, including Debian and Fedora
My free software contributions are not intended to be exclusive to Ubuntu or any other distribution, I believe in the expression that a rising tide lifts all boats. In the world of real-time communications software, the most important thing is to enable interoperability between platforms and I have been particularly dedicated to making sure that these solutions work on Ubuntu just as well as any other major platform I support.
Future Goals
Improving interoperability of real-time communications software on all the major Linux distributions.
Making WebRTC work successfully on Linux, both on servers and desktops. For example, extending the DruCall module for Drupal and making it fully installable with apt-get.
