I am Kevin Brubeck Unhammer.

I maintain the following projects:

• Northern Sámi and Norwegian, (which uses HFST for analysis),
• Norwegian Nynorsk and Norwegian Bokmål, with support from GsoC (see project application),
• Faroese and English, using Matxin and CG
• Lt-trim and some Emacs modes

I'm also interested in Georgian, Dutch, Maltese, … I used to study computational linguistics / NLP at University of Bergen, now I work on grammar checking and the Norwegian WordNet for Kaldera språkteknologi AS.

Quotes

They've a temper, some of them—particularly verbs: they're the proudest
—adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs—however, I can
manage the whole lot of them! Impenetrability! That's what I say!
— Humpty Dumpty

<Unhammer> Every time I start working on a new Apertium lang. pair, I get water damage in my apartment.

<spectie> Unhammer, are you sure you want to start working on ht-en
<spectie> what with your precarious plumbing situation ?
...
<Unhammer> back to sme-nob, hopefully averting more water damage

  <miri> now the internet is back
  <miri> but there's no water in my building
  <miri> I hope there is no correlation ;)

<Unhammer>  [-#Ipmil-] {+Ipmil+}
<Unhammer> blasphemy

IRC looks much better with some rage.
