Who I am

I am Lord Echezonachukwu Agwuncha. I am a Nigerian and I live in Aba Abia State, Nigeria. I am a computer programmer/analyst currently pursuing to get an admission in the University to study B.SC Computer Science as as a part of the fufilment of my dreams to get a certified education instead of just moving along only with personal instincts/Self Education.

In the year 1999 at the age of 9 a great dream/inspiration to move into and practice core and charismatic computing was born and i began experimenting on software (both application and system software) of any computer i could lay my hands on as at then. I began to study Desktop publishing/Designing and then my interest in computers went far beyond that and then i got more and more interested in programming/softwares and anything concerning computer security and Networking and also i also got interested in Engineering aspect of computing and most importantly highly interested in developing people/raising people that will flow with me in the world of computing so that we could work collaboratively as a team to achieve a common goal, though it has not been achieved yet but i am still working on it hard but believe it is not easy. My great quest and high taste in freewill/freedom/open source computing moved me away from Microsoft products and then landed me to UNIX/Linux operating systems/Applications and then i was now being introduced to Ubuntu/Ubuntu Community which is a place/base/primer for the real achievement of my dreams in core/charismatic computing (i.e Knowing the Philosophy/all about Computers. I have been part of various computer centers/Institutions in Nigeria just to keep the computing fire burning, burning and burning.

Currently, i will refer to myself as a C++/HTML/Python Programmer and a Lord in UNIX operating systems. I can prove all these beyond all reasonable doubts.

My Ubuntu Story

I have been a lover of opensource softwares/applications dealing strictly on computer security, networking and general programming but still confused about how to go about it (i mean how to go about the opensource softwares/applications) until i read a post online written by someone i suspect to be an Ubuntu user. In his post at (http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-139437-i-want-to-download-the-unix-operating-system) he gave a link on where we can download a UNIX operating system (http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download), because that was my major focus (getting and installing a UNIX operating system). I downloaded and installed it and also loved and appreciated it and that is exactly why i am highly interested in joining the Ubuntu Community. I want to give back to Ubuntu. Ubuntu is very fast at installations, booting and shutting down, infact i am highly impressed by the great works of Ubuntu so far.

Yes! (As all the other people before me) I want to contribute to Ubuntu and its community as a developer. I want to be assigned to a project I am really going to devote myself to.

My Involvement

  • I prefer to get involved completely on UNIX/Linux programming, i also would like to get involved in other programming projects, test/debug/process code and writing manuals.

Things I am proud of

I am very proud though not yet fulfilled, that i can be called/referred to as a UNIX programmer and also very happy that i am about joining Ubuntu/Ubuntu Community.

Areas of Work

I am comfortable with Python, C++, HTML/XHTML, VB and UNIX/UNIX programming but still making great and greater effort to be expert in Java, Perl and LISP.
