| == About Me == I'm Jackson, I'm 15 years old and live in Australia. I started using Ubuntu during 10.10. I have been an active member of the ubuntu team since 12.10 alpha 3 and debian since mid-2013. |

| == My history in FOSS and Ubuntu == The Ubuntu family is main project contribute to. I joined the Ubuntu Quality team (and as a result the Ubuntu community in general) just after the release of alpha 3 in 12.10. I have since found many bugs, made manual ISO testcases and run an Ubuntu-classroom session on the program testdrive. I helped start the modernisation of Ubuntu's testcases which now includes over 200 testcases. In February 2013 i was given a trial as head of testing for Xubuntu because I was the only person who put their hand up for the position, since then elfy has returned and taken over again. I first applied for ubuntu membership in april 2013 and was given membership in may. I have run over 300 ISO testcases for Ubuntu. I started packaging in mid-2013 and now help with a number of packages in ubuntu and debian. |

| == Debian == I am part of a number of packaging teams for debian, as well as some minor packages i personally maintain. Most of these are related to xubuntu and ubuntu-gnome. == The Ubuntu PC == In May 2013 i had the idea of making an Ubuntu themed PC case mod. I've put the progress on my blog. The project was a failure, so it now is a backup PC (I got a better laptop so it was less important). |

| === Membership === | When Patrik joined the Marketing (formerly Artwork and Design) Team, he brought to the table a different perspective of our goals and design principles, which resulted in a major re-branding of the identity of Ubuntu GNOME. He takes things seriously and professionally, which is not always the case in this kind of volunteering projects. Working with Patrick is a joy, and he would surely make an excellent asset to any design team. |

| I've had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with Jackson, as we are both contributors of the [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam | QA / Testing team]]. He is certainly hard-working and committed on his helping of this team. Jackson is a great contributor and person. As examples, he has held a [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities/Classroom | classroom session]] and also chased up a bug in [[https://launchpad.net/testdrive | Test Drive]] along with being a dedicated tester. I believe he is worthy of Ubuntu membership and ask that you look favorably on his application.

| I'm fondly surprised that two same-aged teenagers (me and Noskcaj) are joining the Ubuntu QA Team at the same time. Noskcaj is seriously a dedicated tester to Ubuntu, for example writing testcases for Xubuntu, catching up with Testdrive and doing classroom sessions. I received membership earlier than him, but I seriously think that he is better at me for getting membership if you only count QA contributions. I highly recommend him for Ubuntu membership.

| It's been wonderful watching Jackson learn about ubuntu and grow as a contributor and member of the ubuntu quality team. Since learning how to test an iso himself, he's gone on to help the team by instructing others and encouraging new folks via IRC and the mailing list to do the same. To this end, he has helped to ensure the Testdrive testing tool has remained an option for new folks -- helping to drive bugs and keep the tool up to date with each release. He's helped to ensure some of the lesser tested images are kept up to date with proper tests and test results. His attitude and skills are all wonderful representations of ubuntu. I look forward to seeing more good things from him. I would ask you to look favorably upon his application and welcome him into ubuntu as a full member.

Above all, he loves what he is doing and that means success is not too far away from those who do what they love and believe in. Patrik is the high quality of contributor we do need within our community. I highly recommend to accept his application and can't wait to receive his @ubuntu.com first email.

| Mr. Doak is learning from the School of Hard Knocks about teamwork as well as working with others from diverse cultures. As the testing lead for Xubuntu he had a difficult task to push for testing of images during the Raring Ringtail cycle. He accomplished that task while facing many challenges. As leader of [[OhioTeam | Ubuntu Ohio]] I would gladly import him from Australia to help spur activity within my LoCo if I could. I recommend him to become a peer in Ubuntu membership at this time.

It's great to work with him, he's quick to fix issues and I'd totally trust him with [[MOTU]] upload rights. Update 2014-03-24: I sponsored around 100 uploads for Jackson and I'm still quite happy with his work. His work around XFCE packages is a cornerstone of the Xubuntu project. ===== Specific Experiences of working together ===== Just a few.

He is highly motivated and learning, and most of the things I sponsored for him went in rather quickly after just a bit of cleanup. He still needs to get a bit better with self-verifying his requests (e. g. several syncs don't build or need nonexisting dependencies, or would drop relevant delta, etc.). Thanks Jackson! ''Update from 2014-03-14:'' In the last two weeks I've sponsored about a dozen syncs and several merges from Jackson which were all fine. +1 from me now for MOTU. Thanks Jackson! ==== Michael Terry (mterry) ==== I [[http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=Michael+Terry&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=Jackson+Doak&sponsoree_search=name|sponsored]] ten syncs and two merges from Jackson. By and large they are good. I agree with Martin that Jackson could be slightly more cautious sometimes (in my case, it was missing a build dependency needed for arm or missing a change in Debian that Ubuntu wouldn't want and thus should be dropped from the merge). But the majority of his work has been great, and he's been a pleasure to work with! ==== Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur) ==== I have [[http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=Marc+Deslauriers&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=Jackson+Doak&sponsoree_search=name|sponsored]] a few things for Jackson, and they were uneventful. I don't have much experience working with him, but the few things I did sponsor went well. ==== Dmitry Shachnev (mitya57) ==== ===== General feedback ===== I have sponsored a few packages for Jackson and all they mostly were in great shape.

He has contributed quite a lot to Xubuntu and I hope he gets the upload rights. Keep up the good work, Jackson! ==== elfy ==== I'm not able to say anything with regard to Jackson's overall suitability for MOTU. All I can do is put across how willing and helpful he has been within the Xubuntu ecosphere while I have been involved with them. I'd have been happy to give him a +1 for general membership if I had as much to do with him then as I have since then. Given the +1 from my 'confederate' on the Community Council (Daniel Holbach) then I see no reason why I'd not be able to give him my support. ==== Sean Davis (bluesabre) ==== I am greatly in favor of Noskcaj obtaining upload rights for the Xubuntu PackageSet. He has been taken responsibility of maintaining some packages in Debian and has been influential in creating new packages and updating existing packages to meet a higher standard. As a developer of several of the packages Noskcaj would actually be maintaining (catfish, parole, lightdm-gtk-greeter, xfce4-settings, menulibre, mugshot), please consider this as my +1 (or more) for his packageset uploader rights. -- [[https://launchpad.net/~smd-seandavis | Sean Davis, Xubuntu Technical Lead]] === Ubuntu-GNOME PackageSet (Or desktop-extra, if that's preferred) === I plan to apply for Ubuntu-GNOME PackageSet rights (Or desktop-extra, if that's preferred) at the end of 2014, if you have seen my work, please leave a comment. ==== Tim Lunn (darkxst) ==== Jackson has been an a very active member of the Ubuntu GNOME team for the last 6-12 months. During this time he has been very entusiastic and done quite a lot of packaging work for us. I have [[http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=Tim&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=Jackson+Doak&sponsoree_search=name|sponsored]] 8 uploads for Jackson, most being merges from Debian. However I have also reviewed quite a few more packages either from the gnome3 ppa's or gnome uploads I don't have rights for. Generally his work is high quality however there have been times, that a lack of testing has come back to bite, however this does seem to have improved somewhat in the last months. While I do support Jackson's Ubuntu GNOME packageset application , I also think desktop-extra packageset + upload rights to gnome3-team ppa would be a good stepping stone to get there, and perhaps apply for ubuntu-gnome packageset in a few months time. ubuntu-gnome packageset is fairly small, however most things are very core to our flavour, so the impact of breakage is quite high. |

Contributions
Patrik joined Ubuntu GNOME in November 2014 on aldomann's invitation and is an active member since. As a graphic designer it was only natural to be invited to join the Marketing Team (formerly Artwork Team) to work on enhancing the desktop experience for users of Ubuntu GNOME.
the new visual identity for Ubuntu GNOME - the distro was in need of re-branding due to potential risks it faced due to having borrowed the logo of the GNOME Foundation. This was Patrik's first task right after joining the Marketing Team, which was a success.
working on the website for Ubuntu GNOME - in order to properly represent the #1 distro in the world we took effort to re-design the entire website for Ubuntu GNOME. This is still a WIP hoped to be finished soon.
introductory wallpaper for Ubuntu GNOME and other social media banners and complementary graphics
working on a new icon set for Ubuntu GNOME - for now only folders, we are hoping to create a new icon theme exclusive to the distro along with a new Gtk+ theme scheduled for 16.10
- social media marketing
mentor for Google Code-In along with darkxst and amjjawad - members of Ubuntu GNOME were elected to assume the role of mentors and provide guidance to students participating in Google's Code-In event. Patrik's focus was to assist and provide critique with creating wallpapers for the next next release of Ubuntu GNOME.
Future Goals
He's dedicated to continuous improvement in all areas of involvement and very passionate about everything he does. He's also a keen volunteer engaging in a number of projects to help and improve. In his spare time he works on Ubuntu GNOME; Smart Launcher is currently one of the most popular Android launcher applications on the market (he translates it to Slovak). He used to translate Mozilla Firefox when he had an abundant amount of time. Now he dedicates most of it to improve and hopefully earn a respectable living by doing what makes sense to him.
