About Me
attachment:IconsPage/PicIRC.png My name is Joey Stanford and I'm an [http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember Ubuntero]. I made the switch to using only Ubuntu in my personal life in 2004. I have been using GNU/Linux since the mid-1990s.
attachment:IconsPage/IconHandshake.png I am a [http://openoffice.org OpenOffice.org] project lead and founder of the l10n and Native Lang [http://eo.openoffice.org Esperanto Teams]. http://eo.openoffice.org/ooo_get_legal_eo.png I also work with other F/OSS projects.
attachment:IconsPage/IconFavourites.png I'm very passionate about the Free/Open Source software movements and am a strong believer in using such software as the foundation of all computing. ([wiki:MarkShuttleworth Mark] said this best: We’re committed to reinventing everything we need until the free software stack is a genuinely complete computing universe.) I am also a big advocate (and part-time activist) for GNU/Linux on the desktop and as such am a strong supporter of my favourite distribution, Ubuntu.

Addendum [http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=732244&postcount=2 Post] for HOWTO: Get Apple Cinema 23" Display working using Nvidia drivers with an alternative working config.
Impacts
More money: Like [http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=103 many others], Redmond is not welcomed here
- Less stress: No more fighting with Linux to make stuff work
Increased focus on the job, not the tools: [http://bazaar-vcs.org/ BZR] convert (which much appreciation to [wiki:JohnAMeinel John Meinel] and [http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ Matt Fuller] for repo help!)
Aspirations
- Short-Term
- Secure Ubuntu official community membership
Continue to build out the reach and effectiveness of the [wiki:ColoradoTeam Colorado Team] by getting to more LUGs as well as leveraging our teacher-members to get further into the schools.
Continue to be the POFILTER God for [https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-l10n-eo Ubuntu Esperanto Team] and with my buddy [https://launchpad.net/people/t-morley Tim Morley], drive the accuracy of translations to a better standard.
Become more engaged with the [wiki:MarketingTeam Marketing Team] to help bring the SpreadUbuntu and UbuntuMagazine concepts to reality
- Long-Term, which admittedly are not 100% Ubuntu related
[https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/1 Bug #1] squashed
- Complete the OOo translation with lots and lots of help.
Bring more folks over to Ubuntu via the [wiki:ColoradoTeam Colorado Team].
- Continue to make this wiki entry the oddest thing anyone's ever seen.
- I would love to secure a paid job working on (or for) Ubuntu.
- Stay married to my wife who has become an Ubuntu-widow.
Teach my young boy the values of [http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/philosophy.html#AboutFreeSoftware Free Software] and [http://www.opensource.org/advocacy/faq.php Open Source] so that he can change the world too.
As some of my activities complete, I want to look for new opportunities to participate in the hopes that I can continue to help make, as [wiki:DanielHolbach Daniel Holbach] says, Ubuntu Rock!
