I'm a free software developer, working at the moment on [http://fuplayer.org FUPlayer], a music manager/player/ripper/burner for GNOME. My principle hobby is cycling and bike racing. My dream at the moment is to spend the next several years aggressively training and racing, because I love it and am currently approaching those peak years for a male cyclist (I'm 28 now). I could always be competitive in my age group, but I would love to be competitive ''period'' for a while, and it's now or never, as far as the ol' body goes. | '''[https://launchpad.net/people/jderose My Lanchpad profile]''' |

Yes, the following is a shameless plug: so I need a job, but a normal 9-5'er wont work, because I need daylight hours for training, and I need to be able to take 3 or even 4 days weekends quite frequently for races. Aside from the unlikely event that I could be hired as a poet, someone to stare at the clouds while daydreaming, or a professional gypsy freeloader, my claim to professional status is that I'm a competent software engineer. I'm hoping that for the next 6 months or so anyway, I can get enough people to "sponsor" each release of FUPlayer that I can get by (well, and, probably with the help of a loan or two, get a real race bike and a time trail bike). I'd spent my days training and my evenings hacking the heck out of FUPlayer. And ''that'' would be living the dream. ;) | |

This is me after the 109 mile El Tour De Tucson race: I finished in the top 13% after only being back on the bike for 6 months, and only training with real diligence for about 3 months. | * [https://launchpad.net/kungfu KungFu DVD Ripper] * [https://launchpad.net/snakebite/ SnakeBite MP3 Converter] * [https://launchpad.net/pyawesome pyawesome rapid application development library] * [https://launchpad.net/bzr-release bzr-release packaging script/library] |
