FreeBSD Ports
I enjoy creating and maintaining FreeBSD ports, and believe that it adds significant value to the FreeBSD project. After all, an operating system without add-on software can only get you so far!
Bug Triage Team
Volunteer in a issue (PR) triage team project/experiment:
An experimental new Triage Team was formed in the end of 2015 to create a new way for community members to participate, and to improve issue management and productivity in general. Making more effective use of automation and tooling can help to increase developer productivity and the quality of FreeBSD, just as the adoption of Jenkins and continual integration tooling catches regressions quickly and maintains the high standards for the system.

Small projects I would like to do for FreeBSD
- Add feature to Poudriere for simultaneous (bulk) testport for all combinations of port options
- Add feature to Poudriere for the Web interface to include lists for "Queued" and "Remaining"
- Teach geli(8) how to attach multiple volumes at once, so that it can reuse a passphrase when attaching multiple encrypted disks used in a raidz.
- Port Plex Media Player to FreeBSD ports. Requires QT5.6 support first.
