Google Summer of Code 2006: I made some FreeBSD Ports Collection infrastructure improvements. The FreeBSD Ports Collection is a complex system to fetch, compile and install third-party softwares for FreeBSD. It is entirely written in BSD make with embedded shell scripts and a bit of awk. The main Makefile is about 6.000 lines.
Google Summer of Code 2007: Similarly to the previous year, I made some infrastructure improvements on the FreeBSD Ports Collection again. It included a rewrite of the DESTDIR feature I wrote previous year and a big cleanup to Perl ports.
FreeBSD Ports: I maintain some FreeBSD ports. These can be installed manually from the Ports Collection, and the official packages are also built from these ports. You can find a list of the FreeBSD ports I maintain here: http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/portsurvey/gabor@freebsd.org.html.
