I have written a few short HowTo's so far. I am involved with the UF Beginners team, and I frequent the forums, wiki, and Launchpad, although the bulk of my time is spent assisting on IRC.
== My HowTo's ==		 I generally help out on the forums, posting support and overall chatter. On Launchpad, I more answer questions than triage bugs, as development isn't my area (I do some, as my membership of the BT Development Team [see below] shows), but I do try to help.

On the wiki, I edit in new information and help to keep things up to date

Testimonials

  • Vantrax - Hellow/Colin is a helpful and positive influence in the community, forums, Beginners Team. Always willing to help in anyway that he can either in the forums or on IRC.

  • It has been a lot of fun working with Hellow on the Beginners Team. Despite being young, he is incredibly knowledgeable and is always looking for new things to learn and more ways to contribute! He has continually shown a professional and positive attitude with the team and when helping others on the forums. For being true to the Ubuntu spirit, I support this "young buck" for Ubuntu Membership! - Rocket2DMn

  • I have found Hellow to be eager to assist new members and always looking for ways to contribute. He is a very upbeat and active member of the BT. I echo Rocket2DMn in his support for this "young buck". PrivateVoid

  • Although I have not known Hellow long, I feel I have gotten to know him very well. He is always eager to help in any way he can, and has demonstrated good knowledge about Ubuntu and other related topics. I have no doubt that he will continue to contribute to Ubuntu in the future. Hellow has my support for Ubuntu membership. nhandler
