FreeBSD bridges the gap of my profound interest in source code and my educational background in chemical engineering.

My overall interest within the FreeBSD project in no particular order:

Documentation: mostly handbook changes (eg: IFPW in-kernel NAT), man page changes,…
Ports: Maintainer of a few ports in the tree, should get more ports under my name… (https://portscout.freebsd.org/driesm@freebsd.org.html)
Base: Small patches to improve user-end experience, rc-scripts, man pages, configuration options, clean-up,…

Things I'm trying to work on or for in the future:

DHCPv6 changes when the client hits base, will need a lot of documentation updated!
NPTv6 IPFW topic in the handbook to show some suggested use cases of prefix translation.
OpenFOAM porting to FreeBSD, will probably need some help or a mentor in the long term.
Base: nothing real on the horizon yet, man pages regarding DHCPv6.
