TUNES Project Members

TUNES lurkers are those who think TUNES ideas are cool, or interesting, and often check back at this site for updates. If you are one of these people, sign up below and you can get your information published on our site for others to read.

TUNES members are those who go above and beyond visiting the site now and then, and actually contribute something on the project. This might be as little as posting on the mailing list or editing web pages, or as involved as writing code for a prototype system that helps explore TUNES ideas.

If you actually need access to TUNES CVS or are a contributor and want a @tunes.org email address or other hosting, then visit the Bespin Account Application page, and enter TUNES as the project. If you're listed under Contributors, you will probably be granted an account.

(There's also a short list if you prefer that.)

I have a project of my own, ARGON, with similar goals, if a differing slant on implementation technique. Since that kind of makes Tunes and ARGON competitors, I could either be a bastard and try to compete the hard way, or get my feet in both camps and try to see if I can make ARGON and Tunes interoperable - so different parts of a large system can run on whatever system favours them better.

When I typed in my name just a few seconds ago, I hesitated for a moment, worrying that the second to last letter of my last name would not get through correctly to every reader. That's just one of the problems with my computing system I have to deal with every day. The list is long... And just a few days ago I installed Linux on dad's new computer. What a relief! But I feel empty still. Sure, it's better than Windows, but really, is the difference so big? The biggest difference is that it comes with source code. (Or maybe I'm just depressed.)

Software Skills:
Professionally, in the last years, I have worked mainly with Object Pascal (Delphi) but I am/was fluent with ISO Pascal, Assembly (6502, Z80, some x86), Basic (mainly on Commodore machines in the early '80s) and stack-based languages, mainly Forth. I'm always eager to learn new concepts, so I have played a little with numerous languages and I have read a great number of technical papers. I'm quite familiar with functional programming languages, like (core) Lisp, Scheme, ML, Haskell and constraints/logic programming languages, mainly Prolog. Recently renewed interest in: Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Psychology of Programming PoP), Information Retrieval (IR), Relational DBMS, Evolutionary Computation, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine-Learning (ML), Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW)...

A simple, small, clean and understandable (by a single person) reflective computing system that adapts itself dynamically to the world, versus current computing systems which pretend that the world adjust to them (lowering their own utility in a dramatic way).

Software Skills:
Tons of Java development - mostly server, used to do GUI (both versions), some EJB and threads, etc. Lots of database work - design, redesign, analysis, diagrams, lots of SQL work. Have C/C++ experience in BeOS, Unix, and Macintosh (GUI and backend work). Other languages include Scheme, LISP, CLU, Assembly and microcode. I'm very big on sofware design, but am learning that I prefer eXtreme Programming with the large amounts of collaboration, refactoring, and providing testing for (most) components. I like proof-of-concept programs even if simple as long as they give all relevant details and do something useful to give a better reference for discussions.
Software Goals:
A completely modular system running on PC hardware providing an infinitely manageable environment with any amount of access and configurations that I desire. So the perfect OS, the perfect data storage system, the perfect operating environment, and a system perfect for programming.

Several hours a week (5-10, depending). Would like to participate in chats about design as well as diagramming and coding.
