Advanced Problems in the Linux Environment
The projects listed here solve particular problems the author had with existing software and documentation. They remain public only as long as others find them useful and point out errors, shortcomings or possible improvements. Projects which don't receive such feedback will vanish from here eventually. Thus, if you like one of the projects and want it to stay, consider to get involved.
