27 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service
28 Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of
29 non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously
30 mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not

775 I work with various free software packages, mostly GNU ones,
776 for Unix and VMS (the latter both on VAX and Alpha). I've
777 been porting GNU Emacs to VMS between spring 1991 and
778 somewhere in 1998. I've ported a bunch of other GNU programs
779 as well. I maintain GNU vmslib.
780 For further info, see http://www.lp.se/~levitte/prof/resume.html
783 To a varying degree (ranging from extension and porting to
784 installation and simple questions) at the time of updating
786 - GNU vmslib, emacs, autoconf, zip, diffutils, m4, patch,
787 texinfo, C/C++; on both VMS and Unix.
788 - Other GNU programs to a small degree; on Unix.
789 For further info, look at http://www.lp.se/products/gnu.html
792 Fluent in TeX/LaTeX and many programming languages.
793 Modified key elements in Emacs (e.g., memory and process
794 management) to work transparently on VMS. I have very good
795 knowledge in the VMS operating system. I'm also knowledged in
796 the a few Unix flavors.
797 Well knowledged in cryptography as well as the development of
798 the PKIX standards (both based on X.500 and RFC 2459) and
799 involved protocols (SSL, OCSP, CMS, ...)
