  • Uncurled

    Uncurled - everything I know and learned about running and maintaining Open Source projects for three decades.

    I have been actively involved in Open Source development since the early 1990s when I discovered the phenomenon of people writing source code they give away freely for others to use and modify under a certain license.

Utmärkelser och priser

  • Gold medal

    The Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences

    The Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) awarded me a gold medal 2025 for my work on curl.

    This academy, established 1919 by the Swedish king Gustav V, has been awarding great achievers for over one hundred years and the simple idea behind the awards is, as quoted from their website:

    Gold medals are awarded every year to people who, through outstanding deeds, have contributed to creating a better society.

  • Polhem Prize

    The Swedish Association of Graduate Engineers

    Everything that is connected needs to exchange information. Twenty years ago, Daniel Stenberg started working on what we now call cURL. Since then he has spent late evenings and weekends, doing unpaid work to refine his digital tool. It consists of open source code and allows you to retrieve data from home page URLs. The English letter c, see, makes it "see URL".
