1°) I have been working as opensource developper since 1999 on various projects. These projects are related to Linux and/or Texas Instruments' graphing calculators/hand-helds :

- development of analysis tools (home-made) : SCALP, AVRlink, DSP TMS320C31,

- some documentation on TI hand-helds communication protocols (written with a young American),
- the creation of a web site called 'Linux Programmer Group' : http://lpg.ticalc.org,
- a hand-held/PC linking program (TiLP) : http://tilp.info, (which is regularly rated in the top of downloads on ticalc.org),
- some device drivers (serial/parallel) for Linux : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tidev,
- an emulator (TiEmu) and it's iPAQ port : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tiemu/index.html,
- porting a full 'C' tool suite (TiGCC/Linux) : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tigcc,
- some USB device drivers for Windows and Linux : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_usb,
- I'm discussing with TI Education in order to get more than devices (specifications of protocols),
- I manage to get some TI devices from TI France (7 hand-helds!)
- lors de mon voyage à Austin (Texas) avec l'IUFM, j'ai pu avoir un entretien de 3h avec TI-EPS pour obtenir de la documentation (les spécifications des protocoles entre autre). Je suis reparti avec du matériel mais pas de doc :-( Compte-rendu ici.

TiLP and TiEmu contains almost 100 000 lines of code and most of them are shared (framework) as libraries (DLL/SO):

- framework : 13000 + 22000 + 11600 + 3200 = 49000 lines
- TiLP : 13600 lines
- TiEmu : 30000 + 90000 (engine) lines

Since 2005, I'm working on some of these projects with an Austrian guy (Kevin Kofler) and some foreign contributors.

As of June 2009, I stopped working on these projects.

2°) An GTK+ GUI which allows to configure the 2.6 linux kernel (gkc): picture.

3°) I'm managing my own small server running under GNU/Linux Debian.

4°) What we can do with a nice USB webcam and the motion program under Linux: I have taken a movie of my unexpected renter (a mouse). It is stealing some cheese without triggering capture (less than 5 seconds).
