><>|| '''I, Logan Rosen, apply for MOTU.''' || '''Name''' || Logan Rosen || || '''Launchpad Page''' || http://launchpad.net/~logan || || '''Wiki Page''' || https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoganRosen || = Who I am = I am a college student who enjoys using Ubuntu and doing packaging work for the project. = My Ubuntu story = I originally ran stable builds of Ubuntu, but then I became interested in the bleeding edge side - I started running the prerelease versions of Ubuntu in 2011ish. I soon became very interested in the development side of Ubuntu, and I began to look over opportunities on Launchpad to squash bugs. I have been deeply involved in Ubuntu development ever since. == My involvement == My involvement in Ubuntu has mostly consisted of triaging bugs and merging Debian packaging into Ubuntu. I will describe this in fuller detail in the "Areas of work" section. == Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of == One place you can look to see some of my best work is to see [[http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=Logan+Rosen&sponsoree_search=name|all of the packages that have been sponsored for me]]. I have requested everything from syncs to merges, and that list represents most of the development work that I have done in Ubuntu. All of my merges, specifically, can be found in my [[https://code.launchpad.net/~logan/+branches?field.lifecycle=ALL&field.lifecycle-empty-marker=1&field.sort_by=most+recently+changed+first&field.sort_by-empty-marker=1|list of personal branches]]; the unmerged ones have the Mature status, and the merged ones have the Merged status. I don't have any specific ones that I am more proud of than others, as tmost of them required a certain amount of complex work to make sure the merges went properly. == Areas of work == As I noted above, I do both development and bug triaging. I have been in contact with many sponsors and triagers in the past when I have had questions, and they have always been very helpful in getting me the solutions to my problems. I am currently a member of the Ubuntu Bug Squad, but I would like to reach higher levels of involvement by becoming a MOTU, which would also gain me Ubuntu Membership - I feel that the amount of work that I have done in Ubuntu should merit that. == Things I could do better == One thing that I definitely could do and want to do better is forwarding Ubuntu changes back to Debian to try to eliminate deltas; I have tried to do this in the past, but I definitely want to do it more often, because Ubuntu is best when there are the fewest deltas with Debian so that upstream changes come faster to Ubuntu users. = Plans for the future = == General == I plan to continue my Ubuntu development in the future, whether or not I become a MOTU - I love the community, and I love the work I do for the project. Furthermore, I might wish to apply for Bug Control in the future, as I would like to be able to set the importance of bugs and mark them as Triaged. == What I like least in Ubuntu == There isn't much that I don't like about Ubuntu, but one thing is that I feel that there hasn't been enough of an emphasis on supporting lower-end computers, especially with Unity. I personally run Ubuntu in a virtual machine, and I used to use Unity 2D, which ran fine, but now Unity is virtually unusable due to LLVMpipe lagginess. I have since switched back to gnome-session-fallback, which is fine for me, but I think that Canonical should make sure that Unity runs on lower-end hardware/VMs if it wants it to be the main desktop environment for Ubuntu users. ---- = Comments = ''If you'd like to comment, but are not the applicant or a sponsor, do it here. Don't forget to sign with `@``SIG``@`.'' ---- = Endorsements = ''As a sponsor, just copy the template below, fill it out and add it to this section.'' == Daniel Holbach == === General feedback === Logan Rosen has put some fantastic work into Ubuntu. He learned quickly and the contributions from the last months I could just upload without any remarks at all. He is definitely ready to be a MOTU and will be a great addition to the team. === Specific Experiences of working together === According to [[http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi?render=html&sponsor=&sponsor_search=name&sponsoree=*logan*rosen*&sponsoree_search=name|the Sponsorship Miner]] I spent something in the region of 70-80 uploads of Logan. Some of the merges weren't straight-forward, but he still mastered them. == Dmitrijs Ledkovs == === General feedback === High quality contributions, among diverse set of packages and actions (merge, sync, new upstream release). I also enjoyed all the relevant request to sync bugfixes from some debian packages past DebianImportFreeze in the quantal cycle. I would be happy to see Logan as Core Dev. === Specific Experiences of working together === || Package || Version || Bug || Action || Notes || || SourcePackage:salt || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/salt/0.10.1-3/ | 0.10.1-3 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:sdic || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/sdic/2.1.3-22/ | 2.1.3-22 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall-core || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall-core/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall-init || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall-init/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall-lite || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall-lite/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall6 || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall6/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:shorewall6-lite || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/shorewall6-lite/4.5.5.3-1/ | 4.5.5.3-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:skimage || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/skimage/0.6.1-1/ | 0.6.1-1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:skktools || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/skktools/1.3.2-3/ | 1.3.2-3 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:smarty-gettext || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/smarty-gettext/1.0b1-7/ | 1.0b1-7 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:xinetd || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/xinetd/1:2.3.14-7.1ubuntu1/ | 1:2.3.14-7.1ubuntu1 ]] || Bug:1016505 || || || || SourcePackage:ztex-bmp || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/ztex-bmp/20120314-2/ | 20120314-2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:alsa-tools || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/alsa-tools/1.0.25-2ubuntu1/ | 1.0.25-2ubuntu1 ]] || Bug:1029476 || || || || SourcePackage:fcitx-m17n || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/fcitx-m17n/0.1.2-2/ | 0.1.2-2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:smarty3 || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/smarty3/3.1.10-2/ | 3.1.10-2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:minbif || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/minbif/1:1.0.5+git20120508-2.1/ | 1:1.0.5+git20120508-2.1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:namazu2 || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/namazu2/2.0.21-5/ | 2.0.21-5 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:condor || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/condor/7.8.2~dfsg.1-1+deb7u1/ | 7.8.2~dfsg.1-1+deb7u1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:bitlbee || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/bitlbee/3.0.5-1.2/ | 3.0.5-1.2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:nautilus-dropbox || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/nautilus-dropbox/1.4.0-3/ | 1.4.0-3 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:alpine || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/alpine/2.02+dfsg-2/ | 2.02+dfsg-2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:nmzmail || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/nmzmail/1.1-2/ | 1.1-2 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:t38modem || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/t38modem/2.0.0-3/ | 2.0.0-3 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:lazr.delegates || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/lazr.delegates/1.2.0-0ubuntu3/ | 1.2.0-0ubuntu3 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:nxcomp || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/nxcomp/3.5.0-2-0ubuntu1/ | 3.5.0-2-0ubuntu1 ]] || || upgrade || || || SourcePackage:rbbr || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/rbbr/0.6.0-6ubuntu1/ | 0.6.0-6ubuntu1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:sblim-cmpi-base || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/sblim-cmpi-base/1.6.2-0ubuntu1/ | 1.6.2-0ubuntu1 ]] || || upgrade || || || SourcePackage:festival || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/festival/1:2.1~release-5.1ubuntu1/ | 1:2.1~release-5.1ubuntu1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:swi-prolog || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/swi-prolog/5.10.4-5ubuntu1/ | 5.10.4-5ubuntu1 ]] || || || || || SourcePackage:yum || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/yum/3.4.3-1ubuntu1/ | 3.4.3-1ubuntu1 ]] || Bug:1098392 || || || || SourcePackage:genius || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/genius/1.0.16-0ubuntu1/ | 1.0.16-0ubuntu1 ]] || Bug:1092569 || upgrade || || || SourcePackage:openvswitch || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/openvswitch/1.9.0~git20130115.ca71f5b-0ubuntu2/ | 1.9.0~git20130115.ca71f5b-0ubuntu2 ]] || Bug:1094556 || || || || SourcePackage:crtools || [[ http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+source/crtools/0.2-2ubuntu1/ | 0.2-2ubuntu1 ]] || || || || === Areas of Improvement === I wonder if we can trick Logan to join the camp of Ubuntu Developers who also became Debian Developers. ;-) == Sebastien Bacher == I've been sponsoring quite some debian merges from Logan, they were almost all good for upload without any change.

I recommend him for MOTU membership. ---- == TEMPLATE == {{{ == == === General feedback === ## Please fill us in on your shared experience. (How many packages did you sponsor?
