I'm attempting to document all of the logos for the FLOSS projects I'm involved in, with their attendant licesnses and copyrights, here: logos.galtzo.com. It has been a multi-year effort hunting down the original creators for some of these logos, and documenting the conditions under which they can be used. I'd love to hear if this is useful in your projects!

I was laid off in a March 2025 RIF, and am looking for my next sponsor and my next role.

Want to chat about open source, or any of my projects? Join my FLOSS discord.

Want to pay me for work? I'm available!

Thanks to all my sponsors across any of the donation platforms! Special thanks to my biggest sponsor HealthSherpa!
