This is Clive Feather's home page.
It isn't about work, but about my personal interests.
Since I'm a busy man, I don't have a lot of time to work on this page, and
it isn't the best example of design in the world. However, here are some links
to things I've done.
|
Clive's UndergrounD Line Guides - a line-by-line guide to the features and
history of London's Underground. As well as being the oldest such system in the
world, the Underground remains one of the largest and most complex.
|
|
More
railway material, including links to other sites. This isn't a
trainspotters' site. My main interests are in signalling and safety, and this
bias is reflected in the contents of the pages.
|
|
Information about the Psion Series 3, 3a, and 3c pocket computers, including
The Psionics Files, which provide detailed
information for those wanting to do more programming than the OPL manual
explains.
These pages are no longer being maintained and are retained for historical
interest only.

C -
the language and the Standard.
For many years I was a member of the UK panel on C, and
took an active part in the development of the 1999 C Standard ("C99").
To this end, I made a number of proposals and wrote a number of other
papers.
|
|
Telephones - information about telephones, telephone numbers, and call
charging.
|
|
Presentations that I have
given.
|
|
Notes from a meeting at the
Home Office on 1996-01-19 to discuss the issues of regulating "adult
material" on the Internet. While the meeting itself reached little or no
conclusions, it was the start of quite a lot of activity culminating in the
formation of the
Internet Watch Foundation.
|
|
Legal issues, such as the
interception of email.
|
|
The Romans and some oddities about them, such as a
catalogue of the legions.
|
|
Science
and Mathematics; a collection of random articles about things.
|
|
My gallery of photos,
provided off-site courtesy of Fotopic
(created but no longer run by Joel Rowbottom).
|
|
Nominet and me - Nominet runs the .uk domain space and I have various
bits of involvement with it.
|
|
Miscellanea that don't deserve their own headings. For example, there is a
description of the
rules for Easter, where they came from, and how
to calculate the correct date.
|
|
My useful or interesting links; this page starts with a set of pointers into
the main document. I also have
a collection of older links. Many of these are
probably no longer available; as I get time, they're being merged into the
proper links page.

Email from me tends to come from a number of places due to the complexity of
my networking arrangements. However, the best place to send mail to me
is my home address
<clive@davros.org>.
