All paths lead to nowhere
Despite the touted hype
Maybe I should try a new path
And follow it, as if on a dare.
After all, I'm not exactly to type
Because others see me in different ways.
They pretend I am with them, and that they care.

I am tired of the accepted ways
In which we all are bound.
For even in these "enlightened" days
People really do seem silly
As they act and live to the sound
Of the noises they have created.
And a slave to, if they but knew.

Yes, I need to find another path, "the one less traveled".
I need to escape and find a place
Where there is peace of mind.
Where sanity exists and people aren't
Deliberately and knowingly unkind.

Interests

My vision is that Ubuntu will become a major platform for scientific research, teaching, computing and program development. One way of achieving this goal is to make sure that as many science applications as possible are available as packages that readily can be installed.

Linux is extremely well suited for teaching in higher education, because high quality software is available free of cost and freely distributable. Teachers in a course could simply hand out a copy of the CD to all their students, who could take it home and work with the relevant problems. It would be a great opportunity to present students to Linux wonders!

It's equally important that young talents have access to a stable platform well suited for program development. Linux is such a platform, with lots of tools for program development, even sophisticated IDEs are available. What's important here is that the standard libraries used within the various scientific communities, are available in packages, so valuable time is saved getting this infrastructure set up.

If Ubuntu/Debian becomes a solid scientific platform, it will also encourage people to publish their software under a free software license (which has not been customary in our community) given the precious privilege of possibly getting their software into the distribution.

I'm very motivated to engage in work on an Ubuntu Science Edition. I imagine the debtags system might be something that could be helpful in this regard. While a standard, installable edition would certainly be desirable, it would also be extremely useful with a live CD, that could contain scientific software, databases, and various types of documentation. Perhaps the installable Science edition could even include tools that would enable teachers to add their own custom material to the CD.
