My name is David A. Wheeler, and I specialize in computer security and
developing large software systems.
I've also written a number
of articles on open source software / free software (OSS/FS).

that often.
I have many other interests besides the Wikipedia. My main interest in the
Wikipedia is trying to contribute ideas to help the Wikipedia project overall, rather than contributing specific articles. Simply put, I want the Wikipedia project to succeed, and since I don't have time to contribute lots of articles, I'm trying to contribute as I can. I've contributed a general html2wikipedia tool, and posted several ideas to the Wikipedia-l list that I hope are useful. I've also modified various "policy" documents and Wikipedia user documents, in the hope that by doing so I'll influence many articles (not just ones I've written).
I do occasionally edit stuff. I tend towards
Inclusionism, but I'm not hard-over
on it.
