He wrote libart_lgpl. I think he was involved with GdkRGB stuff (or he may
have 'influenced' it somehow). I think he started some work on a GNOME DOM
implementation. He wrote Wet dream (I've only had the pleasure of looking at
those screenshots). He started writing an SVG editor I believe. Raph is just
an amazing "graphics" guru. I think he is also participating in discussions on
the new X extension (the one that gives you anti-aliased text and alpha
blending). He is also now the new ghostscript maintainer. Oh, he is also a
font and printing guru too (I believe due to his experience with working with
print shops in the past). He also created advogato.org (but thats not really
GNOME related (well mod_virgule is in GNOME CVS)). Anyway Raph is an excellent
candidate. From what I've read from his diary entries though, he doesn't have
much time :(
