My involvement with the NetBSD Project

I came to NetBSD in late 1.1, about a month before 1.2 release. It was time when I purchased my own computer and one of collegues suggested trying out NetBSD. Decision to do so was one of major positive movements in my life ;-)
I've become a developer on July 21st 1999.

I generally work on NTFS/MSDOSFS, Linux emulation support. I'm also maintainer of NetBSD on IBM PS/2 and do other general kernel hacking occasionally. Seems likely I'll be involved in RS/6000 and/or SGI Indy porting efford in future.
Last but not least, I attempt to add various iso-8859-2/czech language support things to NetBSD; those bits are quite limited though, since I don't consider this as a primary priority.

And off the computer keyboard?

I live in the second biggest town of Czech Republic - Brno. It's a nice city, has got rich cultural life and many work opportunities, while not being too dense; it's a pleasant place to live in.

Besides my wife and computer programming, I like & enjoy biking, hiking, baseball, good wine and (Italian) food.

I worked for Institute of Computer Science of Masaryk university in the past while I was on the university, then for a year and a half in small software company Per4mance (database, system integration), then like a 3/4 year for IBIS (some e-commerce, database & web stuff, luckily can use NetBSD). I prefer ~small software companies; I don't want to be just one of countless anonymous wheels in big company machinery.

My "real" homepage is elsewhere (Czech only at the moment, sorry).
