Hello.

Thought PLUG might be interested in this, as software has been written
by PLUG people in WA, including TWIG being co-written by Leon, from
memory, David Campbell (I think that is his name) wrote the parallel
port drivers for (enabling zip drives to be used with) Linux, etc.

It might be worth PLUG compiling (not as in compiling, rather than
interpreting, as used in software development) a database of software
contributions/developments done by Linux people of WA, for submission.

Anyway, have a look at the article at
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-02-09/software-database-flinders-university/3819834
