Ed. note: I have stricken things from this log that nenolod has requested be removed. It has been left mostly intact, however.
-- Jacob Myers (init)
21:17 -!- Irssi: Starting query in staticbox with nenolod
21:17 <init> mind taking this here?
21:17 <nenolod> sure
21:17 <init> alright
21:17 <init> birthday?
21:18 <nenolod> June 3, 1987
21:19 <init> you were born in the US right?
21:19 <nenolod> yeah
21:22 <init> won't do
21:22 <init> so you're notable for audacious, atheme, charybdis, dronebl, and maybe systeminplace
21:22 <init> not sure how notable SIP is.
21:22 <init> anything else?
21:22 <nenolod> not very
21:23 <nenolod> hmm, i also worked on hyperion obviously
21:23 <nenolod> but that's dead :P
21:23 <init> yeah.
21:23 <init> :p
21:23 <init> so for occupation, computer programmer?
21:23 <nenolod> software engineer
21:23 <nenolod> computer programmers do gruntwork
21:23 <init> :P
21:23 <init> good point
21:25 <nenolod> well i did write the first PSF2 playback engine for linux
21:26 <init> ah.
21:35 <init> What year did you start work on hyperion?
21:35 <init> I won't ask any more personal questions :p
21:35 <nenolod> hyperion started development in 2005
21:35 <nenolod> actually 2004
21:36 <nenolod> i also worked on bmpx for a little while
21:37 <init> when did you leave and why?
21:37 <init> (fwiw I'm going to use this log as a reference)
21:37 <init> I'll omit whatever you wish however.
21:37 <nenolod> bmpx died :p
21:37 <init> well I mean hyperion
21:38 <nenolod> oh.
21:38 <nenolod> well...
21:38 <nenolod> we left after bearperson was made lead dev by lilo
21:38 <nenolod> it was really the final straw
21:38 <nenolod> :p
21:38 <init> 2007?
21:38 <nenolod> no.
21:38 <nenolod> september 2005.
21:39 <init> didn't you return?
21:39 <init> the svn logs show some commits in '07
21:39 <nenolod> i returned in 2007 for a little while, but ultimately disagreements with certain post-lilo policies at the time caused me to leave again
21:39 <nenolod> but i'd rather not discuss that part ;)
21:40 <init> fine with me.
21:40 <init> Now, audacious
21:40 <init> when and how did that get started?
21:42 <nenolod> audacious started while George "nhjm" Averill and I were talking about how BMP was being abandoned for something that did not even compile
21:42 <nenolod> in october 2005
21:43 <init> BMPx?
21:43 <nenolod> correct
21:43 <nenolod> :)
21:44 <init> now, charybdis
21:44 <init> when and how did that begin?
21:45 <nenolod> charybdis came about in september 2005, after lilo vetoed our proposal to build a new ircd based on ratbox2
21:45 <nenolod> that's also what lead to the creation of atheme.org as an entity separate from PDPC
21:46 <nenolod> charybdis is that ircd that we proposed to make for freenode
21:48 <init> ircd-seven was started in 2008 right?
21:48 <init> what's your relationship with that?
21:49 <nenolod> ircd-seven is a branch of charybdis, mostly i work with spb with the intent of getting ircd-seven features merged back into mainline charybdis
21:50 <init> ah.
21:50 <init> so, atheme services.
21:50 <init> how did that come about?
21:52 <nenolod> i started writing a services daemon because the others depressed me
21:52 <nenolod> :p
21:53 <init> when was that? '05?
21:53 <nenolod> most of the initial atheme code was written in late 2004-early 2005, with initial release in april 2005.
21:53 <nenolod> atheme is notable because it's the only non-ircservices-derived mainstream services package
21:53 <nenolod> some code in atheme came from shrike
21:55 <init> hm
21:56 <init> now, dronebl
21:56 <init> imo that's pretty notable.
21:56 <init> how did that come about?
21:56 <init> this is the last main section I'm going to do, I'll add a misc. projects section after this :p
21:57 <nenolod> dronebl was started to track botnets in 2003 as part of work i was doing on building an IDS platform
21:57 <nenolod> the idea was that every IDS could link together, and if an attack happened in one place
21:57 <nenolod> all the other IDSes could know about it
21:58 <nenolod> it was then adapted for IRC usage later
21:58 <nenolod> like 2004-2005
21:58 <nenolod> when blitzed OPM was shut down
22:08 <init> that should be all.
