I've been online since the early 1980's, starting with BBS' and BITNET before the Internet became a thing. I am currently employed by the Internet Society (ISOC) as a Senior Advisor to the CEO, helping with communications. I also research and monitor low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites for Internet access (ex. Starlink, OneWeb), write about Internet shutdowns, and communicate about any amicus briefs the organization files. (NOTE: I do not edit the Internet Society's article on Wikipedia due to WP:COI.)
Previous employers: Voxeo, Mitel, Linuxcare, Linux_Professional_Institute
More information about me may be found at links off of: danyork.me
I am on multiple social networks using a variation of "danyork" or "danyork324".
If you want to say hello, I occasionally stream editing of Wikipedia live on Twitch (danyork324). I no longer have a specific schedule as I did during the pandemic.
Topics of interest:
- Pretty much anything about the Internet, particularly its infrastructure.
- Open_standards, particularly those from the Internet Engineering Task Force
- WordPress
- IPv6
- DNSSEC
- TLS
- VoIP Security
- Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
- Curling
- COVID-19_pandemic_in_Vermont
Tools or projects I want to learn more about:
- Wikishootme tool (news article) (meta-wiki)
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Vermont
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors
- Installing MediaWiki from a Docker container
- Template:Cite IETF
A few of the Wikipedia articles or categories I initially created:
- Vermont Community Newspaper Group
- Category:Cloud_communication_platforms
- Link_Layer_Discovery_Protocol (along with LLDP-MED that was later merged)
- Telecommunications_Industry_Association
- Type-length-value
- Pentair
- Delta_Machinery
- Mean_Shortest_Distance
For my own reference - aricles I often refer people to:
