General profiles

 
Michael Stone
mstone
Projects: Rainbow, Build system, Fedora/Debian compromises, Internships

Michael was recruited in the summer of '07 to realize parts of Bitfrost. He is presently occupied with the task of driving OLPC releases.

(Minor interests: error handling, communications security, and development tools.)

 
Michael Stone
mstone at home

Michael was recruited as a Summer '07 intern when he, Michael Burns, and Noah Kantrowitz were asked to prototype Rainbow, the isolation shell described by Bitfrost. He continues to work on this project and also devotes substantial effort to improving the Build system and OLPC's parent software distribution, Fedora.

When not applying to business school, Michael is looking for two adventurous, scientifically minded interns who would like to show the world what's possible by, for example, any of the following:

  • globally improving error detection and reporting logic throughout the upper half of the stack, or
  • prototyping a Bitfrost identity and communications security service, or
  • improving boot, Sugar, or activity-launching performance by 50% or more.
  • addressing all denizens of #schoolserver on oftc as "sir".
