Correo
Correo is my latest project that I have been working on. The goal of this idea is to create a native cocoa mail client that uses the Mozilla mail/news library and the gecko browser view that Camino uses. Another exciting element to this project is the UI artwork that is being contributed to the project by Jon Hicks of hicksdesign and Jasper Hauser. This project is still under the earlier stages of development, but a preview release shouldn't be too far off. Once I get the core feature set working on this application, I will release all the work to the open source community, so the project can grow.

Camino
Camino is an Mozilla-powered (Using the gecko rendering engine) native Mac OS X web browser. This application has been an open-source browser for quite some time, but I have only been working on it for over a year and a half now.

Most of my contributions in the browser lies with in the download manager. I contribute bug fixes and the implementation of new features such as pause-resume downloading. My latest feature for the browser was RSS sniffing that passes off to an 3rd party feed viewing application (such as Vienna). RSS is available in trunk and Mozilla 1.8 branch nightilies, and will be in Camino 1.1.

Oscar
Oscar is an open-source cocoa text editor that I started working on in the spring of 2006. The project will include features such as syntax highlighting, basic command line functions (such as compile a java document, or make file).

I have stopped devoting any time on this project because of Correo, maybe once I get Correo up and running things will change.

The project is hosted here on sourceforge, and contains some really early builds.

Cerner Software Development Lifecycle 2006
This project was part of a class I took the spring semester of my Junior year at Park. The class is a competition between local colleges (Park, William Jewel, Baker, UMKC) where each school competes over who can "sell" their implementation of the requirements. The year I took it, we had to create a solution that uses Cerner's Millennium Objects package (Cerner is a medical software company, Millennium Objects is a Java RPC tool to query information about patients and such) that would work on a Windows Mobile (Pocket PC) device, and on a web browser.

My architect and myself drew up a three module solution which consisted of:

  1. C# Form application for the mobile device
  2. Website built on Java (JSP's) and AJAX
  3. A Java RPC application to thin out the M.O. data to the scope of our solution

The solution that our team came up with and that I implemented won first place. You an read more about the results here.
