Hello all of the current members of CipherShed. I have yet to introduce myself to the team as I was suggested to. My name is Kyle Marek, but I usually go by GigabyteProductions on the Internet, or GigabytePro for a service that doesn't allow the previous name. My location is in the USA. I have not had experience working with a public project or anything that was more than just a personal project of mine or teaching a friend of mine how to program with C++ and the Windows API. I understand the concepts behind most cryptography, and as much as i could learn about public key infrastructure, but I have not researched very far into specific algorithms or cryptographies. I would be happy to help with the project in any way I can, but because of my stated experience with specific cryptographic algorithms, my best field for the project would probably be general coding (such as memory management, interaction with the operating system, project structure), and support for Linux based systems since that is now my primary operating system. I hope I will be seen as of use to the project. My GNUPrivacyGuard public key tag is 0x464C300F. Sincerely, Kyle Marek ------------------------------------------------------------------------ At the time of sending this message, I have not been contacted by any government official or worker regarding my participation in CipherShed or any related project.
