[Linux-wildo-devel] Introduction

[Benjamin P. <Ben...@ar...>]

Hi darkschneider,

here is the introduction for the linux-wildo page you requested. I guess
now it is official. :-)

Benjamin “dedeibel” Peter
Developer since: May 2007

Well, I like those introducing rounds where everybody tells about
themselves, name,
age, hobbies. I usually say something like „Hi, my name is Benjamin
Peter. I am
21 years old, come from Germany and currently I am studying computer
science.“
(Maybe I should write it in a way that I don't have to update it all the
time :-) ).

Anyway, even before the start of my studies I was interested in Linux and
open source. I always wanted to contribute but never got really into it
- until
now. It started off by joining the linux-wildo channel on ircnet and
following
the discussions and progress of the project – because of my interest in
Linux gaming I know the lack of a nice open source voice communication
system and I was hoping for wildo to be success. There was my chance to
help the project becoming a success and so I had a look at the code and soon
found a way to add some improvements.

When I am not working on linux-wildo I like coding small scripts for all
sorts of
things in Perl, but now in Ruby (If you don't know it, have a look and
you will love it – I promise).

Whatever is necessary

= Other Projects =

ACDA http://developer.berlios.de/projects/acda/
Currently I am working on a tool to create an index of CDs and DVDs,
which scans
the content of the disc and makes the database available via CLI, GUI,
http and will
have various export possibilities. At the moment it is developed in Ruby.

Here I am talking with other people interested in gaming on Linux,
helping out each
other. Last year we also participated at the Linuxtag in Germany where
we had our own booth.
