I am a great fan of Open-Source Projects and the community. I am a Network Software Engineer, a researcher and a technology analyst. I've worked on design, development, troubleshooting of various network protocols, network application software and network security software. I like LINUX Operating System a lot and I prefer to promote the same. Reverse Engineering, Product Innovation and Ethical Hacking are my other interests ;)
Ever since I am into my main-stream career, I've got so much knowledge from the open-source projects. I would like to thank each and every contributer. I feel now its high time and to contribute back to this community. I would like to appreciate and welcome whole-heartedly people who would like to use, learn, enchance or join Traffic Squeezer project and make this a great success.
Through many sleepless night, sheer hardwork and with support of my friends, I can see nimble progress of "Traffic Squeezer" which it is making every day, every month, every year towards its destiny.
Many supported and appreciated about the concept and idea of Traffic Squeezer.
And also some critics said before starting and while doing Traffic Squeezer:
* Open Source projects/efforts are never meant for country like India.
* 95% Open Source project fails.
All I can say is this one simple answer:
"If Linus Torvalds would've thought that at his time there are already many great OS exists,
then probably he would've never tried even doing yet another OS like Linux and make it available
free for people"
Please go through the Traffic Squeezer Project Road Map for further details.
As an author of this project, before accepting any contribution (new feature, extension, bug-fix, website content, documentation or any suggestions, etc) from the project volunteers I would like to reserve the rights of reviewing the same before it gets listed in the project. Subsequently, once it has been accepted, their names will be listed on the project contributors list. I would like to thank all the contributors who are listed in the contributors page and also many anonymous contributors who gave their valuable comments on this activity.
I would like to thank all the TS sponsors who trusted and curious on the same and sponsoring for this project. This would act as a motivation and help the Traffic Squeezer team to perform further research and development of Traffic Squeezer Project.
25th December 2008,
Traffic Squeezer Alpha - Public Source Code Release
Yet another dream-come-true milestone achieved as “December 25, 2008” marks the date of the first actual Traffic Squeezer (Traffic Squeezer-Alpha) Open Source Software code release. In this great memorable occasion I would like to thank all the contributors, TS project sponsors and world-wide countless individuals who had trusted, encouraged and supported this project.
Traffic Squeezer - to - "Doublefish Solutions - Traffic Squeezer"
(www.trafficsqueezer.org)
Traffic Squeezer started as a home HOBBY project, and been remained the same for around 3+ years ever since it has started. But I always wanted it get grow big and mature with the same Open-Source model and spirit. Finally Traffic Squeezer is now an exclusive property and Open-Source solution from "Doublefish Solutions". From now, Traffic Squeezer should be getting even more and more dedicated resource human and machine to further develop this project. And hence eventually Traffic Squeezer have been moved into a new individual website/domain as: www.trafficsqueezer.org. I wish to thank once again to all the supporters, friends, reviewers, contributors and sponsors of Traffic Squeezer project, making it a successful yet another Open-Source Solution.
Project Documentation:
To make the entire project as well as to make understand the concept I have included as much documentation both about the project, about my research, as well as few glimpses about upcoming deliverables and so on. There are enough illustrations/pictures I made to make it simple to understand. Nothing is more rewarding than a nice picture trying to describe what the entire above paragraph describes all about. Being a part-time hobby artist and a painter, I can see its importance. Even the same have been implemented in the Traffic Squeezer Device Control GUI to show dynamic configurations both in the form of settings (via HTML input widgets) as well as dynamic topology or Traffic Squeezer pictures. This makes the administrators remember about these settings via these pictures and it is how human brains are designed to.
