Who am I
A third year informatics student at Gdansk University of Technology. Also a long time unix fan/user/administrator. I am very interested in the newest unix incarnations, as well as historical ones. I've read same code from versions beginning at V6, through 4.3BSD up to FreeBSD. I'm an addict of the file metaphor, observing how can it be taken one step further.
