Notes:

I started working with computers at UCLA in 1967. I was an active member of the UCLA Computer Club and taught programming classes as a volunteer instructor. (Many of the club members worked on the ARPANET project, though I was an interested bystander, not a developer.)

I am interested in using XML as the syntax for a general purpose programming language. This will make it easy to add additional ornamentation to a program's code. I've coined the phrase "Syntax is Tyranny!" to express how conventional syntax gets in the way of adding useful features to programming languages.

I also want to add XML to Linux as a communication method between programs. This was sourceXchange wish 112, but sourceXchange is now gone.

New Advogato Features

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

Keep up with the latest Advogato features by reading the Advogato status blog.

If you're a C programmer with some spare time, take a look at the mod_virgule project page and help us with one of the tasks on the ToDo list!
