[Scummvm-devel] Hi, from the new guy

[Thanasis Antoniou]

Hi everyone,

I'm Thanasis Antoniou, and I am new in the developers team.

My nickname in the IRC chat is stroggoff and in the forum it's Praetorian.
For the time being I'll mostly be focusing on Blade Runner, testing and
improving the subtitles component that recently got added and, if needed,
help with the rest of the engine integration work. ScummVM is a fascinating
project, and has been very useful to me since the early years, so I'm happy
to be able to contribute to its development.

I am a big fan of the classic point and click adventure games (and some of
the earlier non point-n-click ones) which where the first I've ever played
(...). Favorite games include Loom, Riven and Blade Runner.

I'm working as a freelance programmer and occasionally as a software
engineer with project contracts. My main field is sensor networks but
lately this has shifted to SoC programming and low-power wearable devices,
as well as basic Android apps to support them. For the last few years, I
mainly code in C but I've also worked in projects with C++, Java, C# and
Python among others.

Quite some time ago I was involved in the Greek localization (font tools,
font editing, translation, final patch) of the classic Secret of the Monkey
Island, Monkey Island 2 (suspended), Grim Fandango, Loom and Indiana Jones
3 and I wrote some tools to support the localization of the Special
Editions (mostly in C and Python 2.x).

I'm looking forward to working and discussing with all of you, learning new
things in the process,
Thanasis / stroggoff / Praetorian
