Mirco "MacSlow" Müller
Greetings everybody! I'm Mirco "MacSlow" Müller your friendly flipping hacker from the neighbourhood. I currently study computer-science in Aachen (Germany) and stuff like OpenGL, GLSL, cairo, glitz, gstreamer, compiz, SVG and realtime computer-graphics in general make my brain tick. Aside from that I always like a good portion of capoeira and acrobatics (as some UDS 2006 participants will testify). I mainly like to "live" upstream, but the cozy feeling the Ubuntu-project provides (technically and community-wise) makes it my Linux-distribution of choice for all my computing needs. I am a native german and I am also fluent in english (written and spoken).
