Amarendra Godbole's presence. Welcome.

Thanks for stopping by. Here you shall find some stuff about me, nothing more. I used to go by the name amunix in my earlier days, but now I prefer coderaptor . Ah, yes, calmbeforethestorm is also something that I like - but it is a bit too long. :-|

I am a programmer, writing software mostly for Linux and other UNIX variants. Needless to say, I write programs in C. I am an amateur photographer too - and you can find my photos here. My photgraphic equipment includes a Nikon N75 SLR, a Nikon CoolPix 2200 digital camera, and a tripod. All photos are clicked with these. If you intend to use any of my photos', don't forget to give *me* the credit - hey, you did not click them afterall. I did.

Apart from photography, I love reading, sleeping, watching movies, and doing nothing. In case you are wondering, doing nothing is also a highly productive activity. I am active on a couple of mailing lists, notably the linux-india ones and the Chitpavan/Koknastha mailing lists. I am also an active member of CAUCE (Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email) aka SPAM. Should you have a SPAM related issue to discuss, drop me a line at amar [AT] india [DOT] cauce [DOT] org.

My new organization is VERITAS India Limited, Pune - now Symantec. Software i18n (or internationalization - 18 is the number of characters between the first i and the last n) Software Security is what I work with these days.

If you are curious to know what is happening in my life day to day - take a look at my journal.

*** [UPDATE] *** More photos are online. Check them out: Drop me a line at amar [AT] obscure [DOT] org if you wish to have a dialogue with me.
