Subject: Re: Offer: I build maxr on Mac OS X

---

well, essentially, yes :-)

I have 15 years experience with linux and fiddeling around with source code (so, no actual coding) and compiling stuff (gentoo, anyone?) and am now using Mac at work and at home since its Unix-based, I know all the tools, command line and so one, and my employer is mostly on the Mac-side (as are our customers).
Well, I'm a network specialist and much into virtualization using vmware, and as well into Active Directory.

So much for my technical background.

What can I offer?
- testing releases (I have several virtual machines and computers sitting around, all OS you support ;-))
- Suggestions
- translations (for instance, I partially translated (and still am) Sweet Home 3D from English to German ( http://www.sweethome3d.com/de )
- Writing HowTos, for example how to get source code and get it to run, how to setup routers or professional firewalls for NAT for online gaming and so on)
- Experience in building stuff and fiddeling around with source code
- Know Linux/FreeBSD/MacOS

What can't I offer?
- Actual coding. I am no programmer, though I can read C and C++ and mostly make sense of errors from compilers and so on
