| == About Me == I am an Electrical Engineer by profession and currently has a full-time job at [http://www.transco.ph TransCo]. Although my line of work is completely out-of-sync ''(for now)'' with my interest in computers, I managed to self-train myself in programming and has been doing some unofficial, in-house development work just to make my job easier... I encountered GNU/Linux (Gentus Linux) in the mid-to-late-90's, then took a shot at Mandrake and OpenBSD mostly for fun and learning experience only. I came across Ubuntu since the Warty release, but it wasn't until the release of HoaryHedgehog when I completely ditched Windows out of my home computer. My first ever participation in Ubuntu was when I tested the company-owned [wiki:LaptopTestingTeam/CompaqEvoN110 Compaq Evo N110] laptop with Ubuntu, and later learned of fellow [wiki:PhilippineTeam Filipinos] in the community. As of today, I am a member of the following teams: *[https://launchpad.net/people/loco-philippine-team Ubuntu Team Philippines] *[https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-l10n-tl Ubuntu Tagalog Translators] *[https://launchpad.net/people/marketingteam Ubuntu Marketing Team] *[https://launchpad.net/people/edubuntu-artwork Edubuntu Artwork] *[https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntugis UbuntuGIS] == Contributions == I am broadband-impaired (like most Filipinos living in the province), so my contribution to Ubuntu is mostly done "offline". I usually hang and help out at #ubuntu, #ubuntu-ph and the [http://www.ubuntuforums.org forums] whenever I'm online, otherwise I just drool with envy watching the logs [http://netz.smurf.noris.de/logs/freenode/2005 here] and [http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs here]. * [https://launchpad.net/people/ippiraman/+translations Rosetta Translation Activity] * Migration to Ubuntu (BreezyBadger) of two internet and gaming cafes (26 units) * Migration to Ubuntu ([wiki:EdubuntuWiki Edubuntu]) of my High School Alma Mater Computer Lab (25+ units, in progress...). I am also coordinating with their Filipino Department Head Teacher in helping with the Tagalog translation as part of the students school project. Since, I have just finished setting up their LAN and they recently got broadband connection, I'm really excited about this! == Looking Forward == I feel that Ubuntu has given me a wonderful opportunity to learn about GNU/Linux, Open Source, and about the community that drives it. I want others to feel the same. |
