Hi. I'm Simson Garfinkel, a computer scientist and popular journalist. I've been hacking code since 1978 or so when I learned to program in BASIC. Although the main software that I'm maintaining right now is the Open Source Advanced Forensic Format and Library, I'm also maintaining a few mediawiki plug-ins to support some wikis that I've got running.

[edit] BibTex Plug-in

I've updated the BibTex MediaWiki extension, originally developed by Jean-Yves Didier, to run under MediaWiki 1.11.

• I'm also cleaning up the code and adding some features

Download BibTex plug-in:

• http://www.simson.net/src/Bibtex.zip (good for Windows folks)

[edit] Calendar Plug-in

I've updated Michael's (hex2bit) Calendar Extension to run under MediaWiki 1.11. Current version is 2.0.4.

• http://www.simson.net/src/Calendar.tar.gz (Good for Unix folks)
• http://www.simson.net/src/Calendar.zip (Good for Windows folks)

A lot of people have asked for important changes to this calendar system, including:

• Repeating Events
• Ical import and export.

Unfortunately, the current design is completely unsuited to these modifications. Calendar really needs to be re-implemented based on a clean SQL model, rather than a wikipedia article model. I just don't have the time to do this, but will see if I can find a suitable student or volunteer.
