Personal information:
   * Email: mailto:coldstore@users.sourceforge.net

Projects:

   * [directory notification package in Tcl]
   * [multiplexer] called Mux here [http://sourceforge.net/projects/libtclpq/]
   * [tclVM] toys and tools here [http://sourceforge.net/projects/libtclpq/]
   * A [tclhttpd] interface to some [CA] code like [SimpleCA] (here [http://users.skynet.be/ballet/joris/SimpleCA/index.html]).
   * a [Tcl Space] called Coldtcl - http://sharedtech.dyndns.org/~colin/coldtcl.tar.gz
   * [Wikit vfs] - a Wikit Virtual File System
   * [RSA in tcl] based on [bignum]
   * [XDR] parser in tcl.
   * [Cache VFS] caching virtual filesystem
   * [TreeQL] a tree editing and query language
   * [snitvfs] Snit VFS implementation template.
   * [mime type recognition in pure tcl]
   * [pure tcl cvs client]
   * [tcc tcl extension] YES!  Compile C directly into your tcl code with only 100K overhead. (I am so happy :)

Quickies:
   * [purse] - simpleminded but effective array persistence using trace and files
   * mapping arrays to directories.  Mentioned in [Everything's a ...]
   * mapping [metakit] [views as arrays] (of dictionaries)
   * Keyword in Context Indexer [kwic]
   * [userid] from tclX in critcl
   * [remote ssh tcl] for remote execution of tcl commands via ssh.
   * [backup utility using rsync] uses the remote ssh tcl facility above.
   * [Postfix] and tcl
   * [tclConfig.sh] parser
   * gathering stuff on [tclxpcom]
   * tcl [future] object type
   * [fields] facilitates the binary (un)packing of fields
   * [dict in snit] a snit wrapper around dict.
   * [patch for rcs in tcl] a quickie to process ''[diff] -n'' diffs

I occasionally throw up bits and pieces here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libtclpq/

   * I have a tendancy to ask ''is there any compelling reason that X doesn't use Y?' where Y is often [comm] ... I just like minimalism, I guess.

Musings:
   * [scope] - on scope in tcl

Wild Ideas:
   * [Tcl Canon and Fugue]
   * The ability to [taint] allocation blocks, its possible uses.
   * [Tcl over Python] a different Python parser to make it look like tcl, and can you tell the difference?

Suggestions: (I'm full of 'em)
    * [Tclhttpd Needs]
    * [VFS Needs]
    * [What's Cool]

Controversies/Rants:
   * what is a [Project Release]?  What is it for?  [Stu] and I have been robustly exchanging views on the subject, and I thought I'd jump in to misrepresent his views in that page.
   * [Imagine a language] ... unexpected side-effects of tcl's virtues.

Firsts:
first mention of 'badger' on the Wiki ... damn, not even close.

Colin, when you use the word "clue" (both as a noun and as a verb) do you mean "knowledge", "competence", "know-how"? This seems to be internet lingo. Is this word used in real life? The word "clue" has been in use for decades but only in the expression: "I don't have a clue". It must be a new meaning. 

You have quite a vocabulary. You could be a great technical writer. Are you British?

Is the mysterious (and very competent) Peter Newman a new person on this wiki or has he been here a long time?

Thanks for the infos
