Hello! I work for Canonical as a Quality Assurance Engineer. My areas of responsibility include managing the Ubuntu QA team, keeping an eye out for high profile bugs and creating systems for triaging and reporting bugs more effictively. I also help out doing some Stable Release Update verification. I am probably one of the few subscribers to to the [https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs ubuntu-bugs] mailing list. However, I don't think it is as unmanageable as it initially seems. I plan on adding some entries to [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Diaries/bdmurray my diary] about it. But I haven't gone on vacation yet. :) Hello! I work for Canonical as a Quality Assurance Engineer.
