Code that I hack on

bodhi

Bodhi is a modular web-system that facilitates the process of publishing updates for a Fedora-based software distribution. This entails interacting with the Koji buildsystem, Bugzilla, packagedb, and mash. It is written in Python and utilizes the TurboGears web framework. Bodhi is currently being used to push out all package updates for Fedora.
