About me
I am currently working as a Kernel Engineer in the 
Ubuntu Kernel Team at Canonical. I am specialized in operating systems, embedded systems, virtualization solutions and system architectures. I received the Laurea degree in Computer Engineering at the University of Siena on 2004.
I have contributed to many open-source projects, with a particular interest with the Linux kernel. As an outcome of my development efforts I have implemented the cgroup-io-throttle patch set, that ultimately evolved into the blkio cgroup controller (merged into the mainline kernel).

General Feedback
I have reviewed multiple kernel uploads for Andrea and found them to be well prepared. He shows good understanding of the processes and I trust him to consider carefully before executing any newly gained powers
For that I am +1 for adding Andrea to the kernel PPU list.

Hash: SHA512
I have reviewed and sponsored several kernel packages prepared by Andrea and he has demonstrated to have attention to details and he is always receptive to feedback. He was also able to quickly acquire a good understanding of the SRU process. I would trust him to upload kernel packages with diligence and responsibility.
I am +1 to adding Andrea to the kernel package uploaders group.
