I'm Ahmed Khattab Shams Al-Din, born on 9/Oct/1988 and living in El-Mansoura City, Egypt, I'm studying English<>Arabic Simultaneous Translation in the Fac. of Languages and Translation, Al-Azhar University. I've started with Red Hat/Fedora Core Ver. 2, On 2004, then changed to Ubuntu in 2009, from when I started to participate in Translation and Bea-Testing. Now, and after I became familiar with Ubuntu, I decided to participate as a Developer to that Great Community. |
My Name is Ahmed Shams El-Deen, 23 from Egypt. I love to triage bugs for Ubuntu, specially for Input Devices/xserver, review Ubuntu translations as well as helping others as long as I know what are they talking about ;). As a member of Egypt LoCo team, I like to go out, advocate open-source, help others to jump to our community easily and to migrate to Ubuntu. I'm doing my best to help new Users/Developers to do it in Ubuntu. I love to deal with each and every interaction I have inside this community from a solely personal perspective, that is to deal with the Human being behind each bug report or support request, this way I can find in myself enough willpower to take the extra mile. |
