I have been interested in contributing to an open source project for quite a while. I love coding, and I love 3d modeling, so it could not get much better than BRL-CAD. Everyone that I have talked with so far has been easy to communicate with, and very helpful. I appreciate that. I will stick around as long as I feel useful.

Who I am

My name is Brandon Hinesley. I am a 26 year old, unemployed, full-time student finishing up my sophomore year of a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I live in California. My preferred coding environment is in any *nix operating system, while using vi and screen.

Contact

Experience

I have 5 years of experience designing commercial plumbing systems in 3d, using AutoCAD. A sample of my work is available. My experience is minimal with C/C++, Java, and Python, but I have coded dozens of VBA programs for several companies I have worked for. I was a Linux systems administrator for a small business network, as well, for about 3 years.

Interest -> BRL-CAD

I have been interested in contributing to an open source project for quite a while. I love coding, and I love 3d modeling, so it could not get much better than BRL-CAD. Everyone that I have talked with so far has been easy to communicate with, and very helpful. I appreciate that. I will stick around as long as I feel useful.

GSoC Project Proposal

My proposal for the MGED to Archer Command Migration project has been submitted. This is the only project that I am submitting a proposal for this year.
