Larger software projects I work on:

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an OpenSource implementation of a complete UNIX-compatible operating system. It contains everything you need for a running system, including kernel, C libraries, commandline tools, installation program and a superb system to integrate and update third-party applications.
This page gives an overview on some of the outstanding features.
CMU Common Lisp
The CMU implementation of the Common Lisp programming language.

Software of my own:

cstream

cstream is a dd(1) replacement and general streaming commandline tool. cstream has its own homepage.

shellsupport

shellsupport(1) is a commandline utility that implements those functionality I most often miss when writing shellscripts.

shellsupport has its own homepage.

ledbiff

ledbiff is a simple program that switches LEDs on the keyboard when mail arrives. For now, it is X11 only, but I plan to extend it to pcvt, syscons and the Linux console.

Usage:
  -f <file>    Monitor file <file>.  If not given, tries to determine 
               main mailbox for the current user.
  -l <n>       Use LED number <n>.  Note that in XFree86 the leftmost
               LED is number 2, not 1.
  -s <n>       Sleep time between checking the file.

cralibs

A set of C libraries, implementing functions I found useful and didn't find in available libraries. These are provided "as-is" without much documentation or polishing. Please note that some of the code in here is very old and doesn't reflect my present requirements for reusable code. However, the stuff works...
