About Me

You’ve reached the Internet home of Dan McGee and the rewritten multiple times “Hello world” blog application. I’m not sure what to say about myself here, but I’ll give it my best shot.

Open Source Involvement

I’m pretty interested in open source software, and a younger me was very involved in several open source projects. My biggest public project was Arch Linux, where I was a software developer, packager, system administrator, and active community member. This entailed many things, but my primary focus was work on the package manager pacman, on which I was the lead developer. The main website, written in Django, also fell into my hands for a few years. I also worked on a few other side projects as well for Arch, and every once in a while did some packaging.

Much of my open source development work is out there in public code repositories, whether on Github or elsewhere. You’ll also see a lot of my old open source work in the Arch Linux Gitlab instance. While on the Git topic, I’ve made quite a few contributions to that project as well.
