Don't see the world through a window, be open {source} minded, and be free.

My Projects
On this page you can find information about some of my larger projects. I have chosen only to show the larger projects that are currently under development. I have several other projects but I can't seem to be able to make some free time to write about them.
OpenARM Single-board Computer
The OpenARM Single-board Computer is a demonstration project to show and improve the possibilities and advantages of free open source software development tools and methodologies.
The Singe-board Computer (SBC) is based on an ARM with Emdebian. It will be a general evaluation board with possibilities for custom extensions. It will include all datasheets, documentation and development notes.
We will aim to become the basis for other development boards; that should make it easier to develop hardware with GPL-based software. We want the boards to be able to split up into individual hardware repository branches.
The OpenARM project has been started and is sponsored by PowerCraft Technology. PowerCraft Technology will guide the project and will facilitate the possibility to order parts and assembled boards/kits. We are also a good contact point for more information.
All work in this project is done with community spirit/philosophy and is released under the GPLv3 License.

– Create Singel-board Computer with VGA output
– Create usb-host camera streamer
– Create dvb-t/analog tv streamer
– Create adsl2+ modem bridge
PCT Desktop Environment
The PCT Desktop Environment is a desktop environment based on parts of the XFCE desktop. It's target is to create a professional, very simple, small, fast and effective GNU/Linux desktop that is easy to maintain, configure, distribute and support for the administrator.
Target audience:
- Companies (small and medium sized)
- Government organizations
- Non profit organizations
- Beginning computer users
- Workflow optimized environments
- Users that want a very fast, stable and simple desktop
The project is still under heavy development and currently packaging work is done for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.
I use the PCT Desktop Environment for multi seat systems, netbooks, notebooks, and mini-itx systems like fat and think clients. I am also aiming to get the pct-desktop on graphical capable emdebian systems.
The PCT Desktop Environment is an evolution on some older concepts idea's:

This is an early introduction, because we like to release soon and often, but there are still some issues remaining that we like to solve in community spirit.
