Archiveopteryx

Most of my work these days is on Archiveopteryx, an open-source mail archive server.

PostgreSQL

• \ef <function> allows function definitions to be edited in psql. (2008-07)
• Better handling of large result sets in PL/Perl: RETURN NEXT and the new spi_query/spi_fetchrow functions. (2005-05)
• Extending md5(text) to md5(bytea). (2005-05)
• A complete Ethereal dissector for PostgreSQL. (2004-12)
• Some PL/Perl bugfixes. (2004-10)
• PQprepare() in libpq allows DBD::Pg (and others) to prepare statements without having to pre-specify parameter types. (2004-10)

Weekend hacks

• A small CGI program to display my photographs (2007-11).
• A small managesieve client to talk to the server in Archiveopteryx.
• My program to convert an OpenSSL RSA key to a cryptlib keyset may be the only one that links to both cryptlib and OpenSSL.

Miscellaneous

• Here's a list of CPAN modules I wrote or maintain.
• I wrote mod_leech, an Apache module to implement per-user download and connection limits.
• I wrote an ICMP/TCP logging program named jail many years ago.
• I wrote a search engine for the Linux package archive at sunsite.unc.edu, which the linux.no maintainer graciously hosted at search.linux.no. All long gone.

(There were many things on my old web site that are not here. Some of them are gone forever. Others may make a reappearance eventually. Let me know if you're missing something.)
