A while ago I wrote an extensible dummy data generator for Java.
I needed to fake some scientific data for a project at work and wasn't satisfied with how closed for modification existing data generation solutions were, so I decided to tackle writing a library on my own.
It was my first major contribution to open source and had some architectural challenges which were fun to solve, not to mention the learning experience :)
