- Drupal contributions
I designed and wrote the system for releasing Drupal contributions, where all contrib modules and themes have real releases, version strings, and much more. You can support future work on the release system via PayPal if you read the announcement.
I maintain the Project, Project issue tracker, OG Project, CVS integration, CVS deploy, Signup, Update status advanced settings and User status change notifications modules. You can see more details at my projects page.
I'm a co-maintainer for the Update status, Organic groups, Devel, Diff, Bio, and Database administration modules.
I've provided patches to Drupal core and the following contributed modules: Views, Panels, Node queue, Event, Location, and a few others.
I wrote the scripts used for access control in Drupal's contributions CVS repository, and the integration with the Project module (the "CVS access" tab on project node pages).
I'm also a member of the Drupal Security team and have discovered and fixed a number of vulnerabilities in various contributed modules.
