Wayne Davison

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wayne Davison programmer, musician, born December 14 in California.

Wayne's first well-known project was trn, a Usenet newsreader based on Larry Wall's rn. During this time Wayne created the unified context diff (modifying GNU diff and patch), which allowed patches for open-source software packages to be smaller and easier to read.

Other open-source software projects he has either maintained or helped to maintain include screen, patch, rsync (current maintainer), zsh, pop-before-smtp (current maintainer), and rbmake (current maintainer).
