Scouting report
C++ systems engineer behind QuantumGate P2P crypto library
assessed from open-source footprint
Karel is a deep systems specialist (100% systems discipline) whose QuantumGate — a peer-to-peer comms protocol and C++ library — earns 116★, alongside the 72★ WMFPreview Windows shell extension. He keeps a tiny, high-signal footprint (4 repos, no forks, 193 total stars), but recent activity is dormant: 0 commits last year and 100% abandonment. A strong pick for cryptography/networking systems work where depth beats volume.
