My computer-related interests include coding and system administration. I previously worked as a Java programmer and used a mix of Debian and Ubuntu workstations. It was also while working there that I got my first shipment of Ubuntu Warty CDs and used it to power a couple of server machines. I gave the other CDs away to my friends so they can try it out. An officemate used it as his workstation and the other team used it as a Server. :) I'm currently working as a system administrator for an IT company. I'm using Breezy as a File/LAMP server here. Again, I got another officemate to convert to Ubuntu and I'm hoping that there would be more that would follow. |

I usually check with Debian upstream if existing bugs on Ubuntu have been fixed. If the Ubuntu version has been updated, I try to verify and close the open bugs on LP (motujava). I don't have the powers and knowledge to make/submit changes to Ubuntu packages yet, but this is an area where I would like to work on. |

I usually check with Debian upstream if existing bugs on Ubuntu have been fixed. If the Ubuntu version has been updated, I try to verify and close the open bugs on LP (motujava).

Plans for Ubuntu
I'd like to see better support for Free Java in Ubuntu since this is an area, which, I think lacks manpower. Coordination with Debian upstream would be good so as not to duplicate effort. Having said that, I think having a better system to coordinate with Debian upstream would be really nice. I try to lurk in Debian's pkg-java list and IRC channel so that I have knowledge with what is going on.
Also, since I am now a system administrator (and no longer a Java dev), I'd also like to see more of Ubuntu on server machines.
