Who am I?
- I am the guy that keep on raising bug.
- I am the guy that keep on reopening discarded bugs
- I am the guy that reminds you of a pitbull because I just wont let go
- I am the guy that in a rare case even fixes a bug.
- I am Lavr on IRC
- I am the engineering manager for the RF and Mechanical engineers at Motorola Copenhagen.
- I am a hardware engineer with some programming skills.
- I am a pointy haired boss.
- I am the guy that introduced TWiki into Motorola Copenhagen. I am also involved in development and quality processes for both software and hardware and it was for this work I introduced TWiki. Since then the use of TWiki has exploded in a way I never imagined.
- I run a TWiki on the Internet as well for my two open source projects Motion and Open2300 and I also host the documentation TWiki for the Linux PWC kernel driver (philips web cam).
- I current host the TWiki4 test installation to be used for TWiki 4.0.2
What do I want?
write access to SVN for the following branches: DEVELOP and TWikiRelease04x00 including plugin areas.What can I do?
- My main programming skills are in C. I originally learned to program in Pascal and Assembler. I have also programmed in different strange script languages for CAD programs.
- My perl skills are rudimentary. I am learning and I want to learn more.
- My main skills are actually: order, persistance, I am meticulous, I am an organizer, I care for the detail and for process. And I believe I know the end users that use TWiki very well - both from a corporate and from an internet application. And those two are like day and night.
- I know SVN reasonably because I use it on my Motion project. I am not an SVN expert but I know the basics that are required and I have set up my own SVN repository for Motion so I also know what goes on on the server side.
Why do I want to do it?
Since I am still not safe in advanced Perl coding I will use my SVN access for- Documentation fixes.
- Merging where it is a simple matter of getting one branch in sync with an other. Especially with plugins.
- Fixing small mistakes others make when they commit to SVN. It can save them a little time if I add a missing line to a MANIFEST file etc.
- I will not commit anything that I am unsure about without asking people like Peter, Crawford, Sven etc. I am the careful type.

Questions and Comments:
That's a GREAT candidate for DEVELOP access ... -- FranzJosefSilli - 08 Mar 2006 Besides supporting the TWiki project very persistently you bring also very good arguments, and you are a representative of the corporate user base (in line with the TWikiMission.) I wholeheartedly support your request. Welcome to the inner dev circle! Sven? -- PeterThoeny - 09 Mar 2006 Sven mentioned we couldn't have enough cheering for Lavrs application, so let me join the choir
-- SteffenPoulsen - 12 Mar 2006
