Current Projects

• I'm working on an adaptation, or new rendering, of the ideas of the ancient Roman philosopher Seneca (as I read them). On my Stoic letters blog, I'm writing a post (in order) for each of his Epistulae morales ad Lucilium ('Letters to Lucilius about Ethics'), taking up one or two points from the letter each time.

• I'm a member of Toastmasters International, in the Karlsruhe Toastmasters club. I have reached the Competent Communicator (CC) level and am now working towards Advanced Communicator Bronze (ACB) and Competent Leader (CL). I'm also currently serving as Vice President of Education at my club.

• Since fall 2009 I teach evening classes in philosophy at the Volkshochschule in my home town Ettlingen. The courses are introductory, and I focus on ethics and mostly use the early Platonic dialogues as text base.

• Project Usus is an Open Source project that some of my colleagues at andrena and I have started. We implement Eclipse Plug-Ins to support common coding practices.

• I have recently started a new technology blog, The Examined Code.

Past Projects

• I have previously maintained (or co-maintained) some projects related to Eclipse. These include:

  	An Eclipse integration for Darcs, a distributed revision control system: http://eclipsedarcs.sourceforge.net.
  	Cohatoe - Contributing Haskell to Eclipse, a project that experiments with approaches to extend the Eclipse IDE with Haskell code.
  	An Eclipse-based IDE for development in Haskell, a functional programming language: http://eclipsefp.sourceforge.net.
  	A project that collects and develops plugins that make it possible to use Eclipse as a desktop environment: http://eclipsedesktop.org.

• For a time, I have blogged about my projects related to Haskell and Eclipse, including the Cohatoe project (Contributing Haskell to Eclipse).
