[Scummvm-devel] Introducing Myself

[Robin Watts]

Hi all,

I've just been made up to developer status, and have been asked by
Fingolfin to send a quick message here to introduce myself.

I'm Robin, and I'm an alcoholic.

No, wait, wrong forum...

I'm Robin, and I'm a software contractor/consultant/whatever. I
started playing with Scummvm because I was attracted to the idea of
being able to replay Monkey Island on my smartphone when I go on
holiday.

I have a fairly broad computing background, covering audio, video,
compression, internet etc, but I specialise mostly in ARM based
technologies, so until now I've been tweaking bits of the code, or
rewriting scalers/blitters/sound code and things into ARM assembler.

I was originally focussing mainly on the WinCE port (as the devices I
have are mainly WinCE based), but I'd like to help out with other
devices too if I can.

I don't have any specific areas of the code I plan to work on at the
moment or anything, and it's in the nature of my job that my
availability fluctuates wildly, but I hope that maybe I can be
helpful.

If you know of areas of the code that could usefully be accelerated
on your port (in particular on ARM based devices), or even if you
just need another pair of hands to help out with something else, then
please let me know, and hopefully I can assist.

Robin
