== My Ubuntu ==

=== Activities ===
 * I am a http://ubuntuforums.org/images/rank_forum_donators.png from back when this was possible. This probably says more about me that anything else you'll read on this page. You can visit [http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=23187 my profile] and see the tag in action.

 * My [https://launchpad.net/people/joey-stan4d Launchpad entry] also has additional information such as my ''nifty Karma rating''. {OK}
 
 * I founded, and am the current team lead for, the http://librarian.launchpad.net/2922271/coloflag.GIF [wiki:ColoradoTeam Colorado Team], a member of the [wiki:LoCoTeams Local Community Teams]. Pictures available at ["ColoradoTeam/Photos"].

 * I am an active member in
  * the [https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-l10n-eo Ubuntu Esperanto Team]
  * the [wiki:MarketingTeam Marketing Team]
  * the [wiki:LaptopTestingTeam Laptop Testing Team]

 * Other contributions
  * Added self to [wiki:UbuntuWorldWide Ubuntu World Wide] listing
  * [wiki:LaptopTestingTeam/SagerNP4381 Sager NP4381] Laptop Test
  * [http://bazaar-vcs.org/JoeyStanford/USBdrive BZR How-To] for USBDrive and Apache
  * [http://rescue.maclab.org/Stanford-Ubuntu-2006-06.odp Ubuntu Presentation] based on [wiki:DanielHolbach Daniel Holbach]'s most excellent one.
  * As far as I know, I am the official coiner of '''Ubu``Nut'''. See the ["/UbuNutDefinition"].
  * Created a small [http://bazaar-vcs.org/JoeyStanford/JoeyBZRFAQS Bzr FAQs] page which I continue to add to over time.
  * Comments/Bugs/Posts,etc
   * Reject to sending clear text credit card info in [UbuntuCommercialSupport]
   * [https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/yaboot/+bug/8136 Bug #8136] based on the old [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=38864 forum post].
   * 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!''

=== Ubuntu-using Personal Friends ===

About Me

IconsPage/PicIRC.png My name is Joey Stanford and I'm a full Ubuntu member. I made the switch to using only Ubuntu in my personal life in 2004. I have been using GNU/Linux since the mid-1990s. I currently work for Canonical LTD.

IconsPage/IconHandshake.png I was a OpenOffice.org project lead and founder of the l10n and Native Lang Esperanto Teams. http://eo.openoffice.org/ooo_get_legal_eo.png I currently work with other F/OSS projects like bzr.

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. (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.
