Ubuntu Wiki

Hi,

• Am slowly working on understanding and extending Ubuntu. Interested in contributing to design and programming. kernel primitives, python, wireless, ZeroConf, firewall, security and wiki ... Some of the related I am interested include the OLPC (One Lap top per Child) - especially the Ad-hoc network algorithmics, wireless primitives, TimeSync algorithmics (who knew - there is a 2nd order relationship between MANET and music !), the Tor anonymous routing et al. I express some of my thoughts in a [http://blogs.cisco.com/AON/ blog]. I also have been contributing to the First Lego League Robotics tournemts as a jugde for the last couple of years ... the creativity of children is amazing ... Am also working on the history and relevance of classical music and most probably will develop a music course for the OLPC ... Let us see how it all works out; if the body is able and willing (the spirit is!)...
