About
I work for Red Hat in platform engineering. As of 14-Nov-2023, I have been at Red Hat for 18 years. I have worked on a number of projects at Red Hat. Prior to Red Hat, I worked for Internet Security Systems (acquired by IBM after I left to go work for Red Hat), assorted Solaris shops, some phone companies, and I was a core team member of Slackware Linux employed by Walnut Creek CDROM (later BSDi). I have been involved in the Linux and open source communities for the entirety of my career.

- Fedora CI and developer tools
- Maintaining old software in Fedora and EPEL that everyone has long since stopped caring about
- Various non-work things at https://github.com/dcantrell (ok, probably some work stuff there too)
Past projects:
- Anaconda from Fedora Core 4 through post-RHEL-7 (forget which Fedora release)
- Multiple networking subsystems in Anaconda

Misc
I live in Medford, Massachusetts and work from Red Hat's Boston office.
