interviews
Paul Boddie on behalf of the Fellowship of the Free Software Foundation
Europe. "
Paul Boddie: I’m writing applications that access and
combine databases in the bioinformatics domain, although I also have an
ongoing project dealing with the text-mining of biological and medical
literature to extract gene and protein-related information. I also have a
fair amount to do in terms of maintaining and hopefully developing further
some software written in the group in which I work. We have to make the
work available, so there’s a need to publish information on the web. It
ends up as a mix of software development, some maintenance tasks, and a
degree of web publishing and content management. I’m working on a range of
personal projects, too, which includes things like the EventAggregator
that is used on the FSFE Fellowship
Wiki, a selection of MoinMoin-related extensions (which is why I was
able to get involved a bit more with the Fellowship Wiki) and some longer
term interests in things like source code analysis and compilation for
dynamic programming languages like Python."
