Bio sketch
Presently I work at IBM Rochester on UI development. During the university semesters, I am faculty at [http://www.ncat.edu/ North Carolina A&T State University] and teach Programming Language Concepts to junior-level undergraduate computer science students. My primary research area is remote compilation tools (as [http://www.globus.org/ Grid services]) in Grid environments; other computer science interests include protocol optimisations and adaptive operating systems. I use FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) extensively in my instructive methods and in research.
A stalwart [http://www.debian.org/ Debian] user since 1997, I am involved in the [http://www.alsa-project.org/ ALSA], [http://rox.sourceforge.net/ rox-filer], and [http://www.go-mono.com/ Mono] software projects ranging from enhancing device drivers to packaging new revisions. I am a commuting member of the [http://www.trilug.org/ Triangle Linux Users Group] (#trilug on irc.freenode.net) and a spirited participant in our biannual installfests.
Ubuntu activity
I'm a Master of the Universe, part of the excellent MOTU team.
I bolster various packages so they may be migrated from 'universe' into 'main' for future Ubuntu releases. Interests include the ALSA, JACK, Mono, and Xfce packages already in either 'main' or 'universe'. As part of the "Masters of the Universe" team, I actively push 'universe' packages into Ubuntu-maintainable shape. I dedicate a significant portion of free time to FLOSS projects and their support; realistically I already devote 20-30 weeknight hours to the Ubuntu project.
I have an active, assistive presence in the general Ubuntu support channel (#ubuntu on irc.freenode.net). There are, additionally, hints for Hoary's apt authentication on [https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AptAuthenticationInstructionsForHoary this] page.
