|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | = People behind the Osmocom baseband project = |
||
| 3 | |||
| 4 | == Harald "LaF0rge" Welte == |
||
| 5 | |||
| 6 | Harald is an independent IT security expert and system level software developer, trainer, consultant and above all, |
||
| 7 | Free Software advocate, Linux kernel hacker and electrical engineer. He was leading the development of the |
||
| 8 | netfilter/iptables project (the built-in IP Firewall present in virtually any Linux system on this planet). |
||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | He has been pioneering many other Free Software and Open Source projects like [http://openpcd.org/ OpenPCD], OpenPICC, |
||
| 11 | [http://wiki.openmoko.org/ OpenMoko], [http://openmrtd.org librfid]. |
||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | In 2008, he founded project [wiki:OpenBSC], a Network-side GSM protocol implementation. After this was working sufficiently |
||
| 14 | with less than a year spare-time effort, he turned to the holy grail of GSM: Implementing a custom |
||
| 15 | telephone side GSM baseband stack without any support from or contact with the chipset vendor. |
||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | This is how [wiki:OsmocomBB] was born! |
||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | == Dieter Spaar == |
||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | An experienced software engineer with a large skill set, ranging from microcontroller programming up to the application |
||
| 23 | layer. He is experienced in various techniques of reverse engineering and {breaking and improving} software security |
||
| 24 | and protection schemes. |
||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | Dieter has been vital in getting OpenBSC started, and is also involved with [wiki:OsmocomBB] from day one. |
||
| 27 | |||
| 28 | His area of interest is related to the DSP and Layer1. |
||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | == Holger "zecke" Freyther == |
||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | Holger has been working on virtually any level of software development, ranging from Linux kernel work up into |
||
| 34 | webkit and Qt. |
||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | He has been working with Harald and Dieter both on OpenMoko as well as on OpenBSC. |
||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | Zecke is focusing on the Layer2/Layer3 protocol side of [wiki:OsmocomBB] |
||
| 39 | |||
| 40 | |||
| 41 | == Andreas "Jolly" Eversberg == |
||
| 42 | |||
| 43 | Jolly has already been on board of the OpenBSC development team, working mostly on the call control |
||
| 44 | and LCR (linux call router) integration. |
||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | In OsmocomBB, Jolly is focusing on the Layer2 + Layer3 protocol stack and issues like GSM 03.22 cell re-selection. |
||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | == Joachim "roh" Steiger == |
||
| 49 | |||
| 50 | Roh is a hardware, Linux and embedded systems geek, who has been working as sysadmin and community manager for Openmoko. |
||
| 51 | |||
| 52 | He has been working on miscellaneous areas in [wiki:OsmocomBB] such as the keypad scan matrix driver. |
||
| 53 | |||
| 54 | |||
| 55 | == Ingo "prom" Albrecht == |
||
| 56 | |||
| 57 | prom is an experienced software developers across all layers. |
||
| 58 | |||
| 59 | His work for [wiki:OsmocomBB] so far has been related to the CFI flash and UART drivers, among other things. |
||
| 60 | |||
| 61 | == Sylvain "tnt" Munaut == |
||
| 62 | |||
| 63 | Sylvain is a linux geek mostly interested in the lower layers: RF / Layer 1 / Harware. He has experience working with FPGA, various PPC/ARM/MIPS embedded systems & linux kernel development. Like a lot of the other developers here, he's also involved in other GSM projects such as OpenBSC / OpenBTS / Airprobe ... |
||
| 64 | |||
| 65 | He has been involved in working on the [wiki:Hardware/CalypsoDSP] inside the [wiki:DBB]. |
