I contribute to Linux and Debian in many ways. Here is the list of my major contributions:
- Add Device-Tree support to Linux Kernel for a few Buffalo Linkstation NAS devices [0].
- Maintain Debian-Installer image for a few Buffalo Linkstation NAS devices as ARM porter.
- Add GNU/Screen support to Debian-Installer (Since Stretch Alpha 8).
- Maintain shadowsocks-libev and its related packages, which play an important role to flight with censorship in some areas of this planet.
- Maintain a few system level packages such as adjtimex and wide-dhcpv6 [1].
I also attend conferences, in addition to the Tokyo Debian Meetings held monthly.
- DebConf16, in Cape Town. I had a short session on Debian-Installer's GNU/Screen support [2].
- Mini DebConf Japan 2016, in Tokyo. I had a session on Debian-Installer for Buffalo Linkstation NAS [3][4].
