Hi! I am Susam Pal. Welcome to my website. This page provides a brief introduction about me and this website.

I am a software engineer by profession. I have a keen interest in free and open source software. My first non-trivial contribution to open source was NUTCH-559 in 2007. That contribution added support for various authentication schemes to Apache Nutch, an open source web crawler. I have remained active in the open source communities since then. I also develop and maintain a few open source projects of my own at github.com/susam. For a list of my projects, see my open source work details.
