All of this software is free software / open source, and I welcome patches and improvements that are generally useful. I'm happy to include generally useful improvements into the version that I distribute, even if I don't use the feature personally. If you have some need that you wish one of these packages would handle but don't know how to implement it, please feel free to send me e-mail; I might be able to give you some hints or find the time to implement it (although I can't promise anything).

I'm in the process of migrating all software I maintain except for scripts to Git. The Git repositories for packages that have been migrated are available from git.eyrie.org.

There is an RSS feed where new releases of these software packages are announced. Those announcements are also posted to my journal, which also offers a general RSS feed if you're interested in more than software release announcements. For following development in detail, git.eyrie.org provides RSS feeds per project repository that list every committed change.

I maintain Debian packages for much of the software here, as well as other packages I'm interested in. Some of those packages are in Debian proper; others are only available from my personal repository. See my Debian package page for more information.

There may be additional software and patches available from my archive site that I've not yet had a chance to write a web page for. I'm still in the process of adding to this page all of the various software that I've written, maintained, or contributed to.

Scripts

  Some smaller scripts that don't warrant their own set of pages. Some larger or more generally useful scripts get their own pages above; these are scripts with a narrower or specialized purpose, or scripts that are most commonly found inside another package.

Orphaned Software

  Packages that I no longer maintain, but which may still be useful. If you use any of this software and are interested in maintaining it, please consider adopting it. Barring exceptional circumstances, such as security vulnerabilities, I will not be making any further releases of these packages.

Obsolete Software

  Packages that I no longer maintain and that are probably not of interest to most people. In some cases (such as Kerberos v4 packages) the software is obsolete; in others, it's just for things I no longer use. Barring exceptional circumstances, there will not be any further releases of these packages, but they are still available for historical reference and in case someone else wants to pick them up.

Patches

  Patches to some packages that I don't maintain which may be of interest to others. Things will come and go from this page as the patches are incorporated into the upstream software. Patches may also be obsolete, if upstream has changed without incorporating my changes. The files here aren't checked or updated very often and are provided just in case they're of interest; you will probably have to do some work to use them.
