= About =

My Name is Ahmed Shams El-Deen, 23 from Egypt. I love to triage bugs for Ubuntu, specially for X.Org, and review 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 trying to do my best to help new Users/Developers to do it in Ubuntu.
