About Me

 * www.muteddisk.com

I am an open source enthusiast and would love to contribute to more projects. Fedora is one of the distributions I use, and is currently the distribution I install on all of my non-technical friends systems to get them to switch to open source.
 * 1)  My name is Matt Mooney
 * 2)  My email address is mfmooney@gmail.com
 * 3)  My wiki username is mfm
 * 4)  My IRC nickname is _mfm_
 * 5)  My wiki page is  https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=User:mfm
 * 6)  My primary language is English
 * 7)  Location, and what hours tend to work:  California, USA.  13:00-3:00 GMT-7
 * 8)  I am a developer coding mainly in c/c++, of course I can do scripting too. I tend to spend my time studying operating systems, namely, the Linux Kernel. I have a few trivial patches in the kernel already, with a couple more in Andrew Morton's tree awaiting the merge window. Recently I made significant documentation changes to one of the kbuild docs, which should also be in the next merge. I also have attempted to fix a few bugs in other projects that I have experienced; however, after downloading the repository and checking the log, I have so far been a few days or weeks too late.

The Proposal
CHASM, the Cryptographic-Hash-Algorithm-Secured Mirroring solution. The idea is mentor suggested.

My proposal.
