Software

Jobby - Ruby Background Job Handler

During Employment With PCCL.

Jobby is a simple, yet flexible client / server library for Ruby which allows one to asynchronously run parallel background tasks. It was developed by my collegue Mark Sommerville and myself to solve a problem we had with an old version of BackDRb. It is in production use on high-traffic, mission- critical web applications and has proven stable over a year of use.

gpgr - Easy GPG / PGP Encryption in Ruby.

Personal project on behalf of PCCL.

gpgr makes it easy in Ruby to encrypt a file for one or more recipients using GPG (GNU Privacy Guard), which is a free implementation of the OpenPGP standard. It's a fast and light wrapper around the command-line gpg command and is only concerned with the encryption of files. It does also include support for basic key management, such as importing keys.

nlChat Pane

Personal Project made in 2004, Submitted to Plant Source Code

I developed this ActiveX control in 2004 to help with a chat client was working on around the same time. Unfortunately the chat service didn't take off, but other people have found my work useful. Although not of much relevance in this .NET world, this VB6 control may still serve as a point of reference for creating components.
