  NYCBUG monthly meeting 
  February 02, 2005 
  Jan Schaumann: pkgsrc 
  
  6 pm, Soho Apple Store at 103 Prince Street 
  
  The NetBSD Packages Collection (pkgsrc) is a framework for building 
  third-party software on NetBSD and other UNIX-like systems, currently 
  containing nearly 5000 packages. It is used to enable freely available 
  software to be configured and built easily on supported platforms. 
  
  Jan Schaumann works as a System Administrator in the Department of 
  Computer Science at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ, USA, 
  where he manages a large, almost homogenous NetBSD environment in an 
  academic environment; runs clustered High Performance Computing 
  Facilities based on NetBSD; ports and maintains NetBSD pkgsrc tools and 
  packages on non-NetBSD platforms such as IRIX and Linux; teaches classes 
  in UNIX programming and System Administration. (Other activities he 
  enjoys that he unfortunately does not get paid for usually involve a 
  board often in combination with some form of H20.) 
  
  Jan holds a BS and MS in Computer Science and joined the NetBSD Project 
  as a developer in January of 2002. Within the NetBSD Project, he is a 
  member of the Communication Executive Committee, leads the www team and 
  -- after having ported the pkgsrc tools to IRIX -- finds himself 
  maintaining the infrastructure for this platform as well as numerous 
  packages.
