About Me

Hi my name is Andrew Constantine I live in Windham, Maine I have been using Linux Mint (based on Ubuntu) for about three years, but around June 2010 I decided to become a full "Ubuntuer". I have a high interest in IRC and as such I've now memorized just about every channel/nick mode and command there is. In my non-computer time i like to ATV, Ski, Boat and Snowmobile.

My Involvement with the Ubuntu Community

IRC

As you can see I am very into my IRC. Whenever I have my computer out of suspend I will open X-Chat. I have learned the many different ways one can ban, set modes, and manipulate ChanServ to do what you want her to do. I feel that IRC is defiantly my strong point and wish to help the Ubuntu community more with my skills.

Writing and Doc/Wiki Work

• I am currently working with skfin on a IRC doc for beginners wanting to join into #ubuntu-youth

General Testimonials

Andrew displayed, over the weeks I have mentored him, an interest in gaining more knowledge (which I attempted to satiate with Python) and endeavor in projects, such as his participation on Ubuntu Youth. Having seen his contributions also in our support channel, I believe Andrew to be a worthwhile contribution to the team. I fully endorse his application. -- pedro3005

I fully endorse pedro's statement, Andrew is an outstanding display of a young man committed to the ubuntu ethos and a worthy member of any team he should wish to help on. I'm proud to consider him as a friend and enjoy interacting with him across several teams. He is patient, knowledgeable, has a great sense of humour and keen to learn more so that he can better help others - Which is the UBT ethos. phillw 5th Jan 2011
