- Django for FC5 - June 18, 2006
  I packaged (rpm) and released Django-svn for FC5 and released updates every so often to fill the 'no official package' void.

I have backported the build system to RHEL4.

- Trinity Systems - Jan. 1, 2004
  Worked with a small team maintaining the Trinity systems which are a group of servers modified for heavy fail over redundancy, information replication, and heightened security.

  ImageJA is based off of ImageJ. ImageJA strives to enhance the feature set of ImageJ with the hope to push the freatures into ImageJ at some point. The ImageJA name is a take off of ImageJ where the A stands for applet as it is the main area of development. This was an open project that a previous employer had me work on.
