! timshel/at/shels/dot/net !! The goof formerly known as TimshelKnoll ... I was TimshelKnoll, but am now married and in possession of a double-barrel name I live at [NodeDDE] in Footscray. Yes, Timshel is a wierd name, but it's my real name, so don't abuse it {/regexpicons/emoticons/emoticon-face7.png :-)}. I'm a final year (yes... or at least I'm telling myself that this is my final one) Computer Science student at (http://www.rmit.edu.au/ RMIT). Until recently, when I converted to using and working on [NetBSD], I was a [Debian Debian GNU/Linux] developer/maintainer, and have been hooked on [Linux] and [BSD] *nix stuff since my first RedHat 3.3 install in '97. As well as being a Melbourne Wireless member, I'm a member of (http://www.luv.asn.au Linux Users of Victoria). My povo student status means that I'm taking my time getting enough stuff together to build my node. :-( I've got an [EnterasysCards Enterasys card] and [Carriers RICOH PCI cradle] and am currently working on a Waveguide [Cantenna] using a Golden Circle juice can. Read [NodeDDE] for more details. !!! TODO * Do more testing / playing * Finish building and test some home-brew cantennas - I do the "other" sort of home brewing, so I want to test how homebrew kit cans go as cantennas ... * Build a dedicated box * Read up on and play around with various protocols, including OSPF (Zebra / Quagga) and IPSEC (FreeS/WAN) * Get up on the roof and set up some kind of antenna mast. My housemate actually scored a 12M mast from somewhere, but I think it's too tall to legally use without a permit. I'm not sure how long I'll be in my current house, either, so might wait and see what the next house provides ... * Borrow a digital camera and put up some photos from my roof ... I'm hoping to get more involved in [WGRoutingAddressing], and maybe also in [WGSolarPower] in the future.
