Projects
bodhi
Bodhi is a modular web-system that facilitates the process of publishing updates for Fedora. This entails interacting with the Koji buildsystem, Bugzilla, packagedb, and uses mash to compose repositories. It is written in Python and utilizes the TurboGears web framework.

liveusb-creator
The liveusb-creator is a cross-platform tool for easily installing Fedora to USB keys.
MyFedora
MyFedora is a project focused in increasing the cohesion between our tools by developing a framework for wielding our infrastructure.
PackageKit
I hack on the yum backend of PackageKit.
yum
I've been known to hack on various parts of yum, and have written some plugins for it as well, such as yum-fastestmirror.
TurboGears
I help develop and maintain the TurboGears web framework stack. You can find my slides from the TurboGears session at FUDCon 2008 here.
func
func is the Fedora Unified Network Controller. I've hacked on some of the guts of this project, various modules, and created a TurboGears-based web prototype, FuncWeb.
sigul

Security LiveCD
I created a minimal, openbox-based livecd based on Fedora for use in security auditing, forensics research, and penetration testing.
