If there is anything underneath these pages with a broken link, or just anything that does not look right, please let me know. I maintain the links and articles manually; there is quite a bit here, and I may get something wrong from time to time.
Note: In an overly subtle encoding of information, the textual links are typically to plain ASCII versions of documents, while the eye graphics are to an HTML formatted version.
Since 2007 I have begun to give frequent presentations at FLOSS/programming
conferences
I write two columns for
IBM developerWorks. One on (mostly introductory) Python topics,
called Charming Python. The other is called XML
Matter, and is on matters XML (generally at a somewhat more
advanced level). The installments have grown sufficiently numerous
to warrant new branches.
I have begun writing for
Intel Developer Services.
I have written quite a few tutorials, tips, explorations, editorials,
and whatnot. Most of these have run on IBM developerWorks, a few
have been published elsewhere. A number of them have coauthors,
which is indicated if applicable.
The mostly widely read thing I've done proves to be this:
A Regular Expressions Tutorial
The Linux Professional Institute (LPI) runs a
certification in Linux skills. I did both a practice exam for the LPI 101/102
exams, and a tutorial series for the LPI 201/202 exams.
The following are written for
WebReview.com. These are generally introductory and/or product
reviews (and fairly short).
