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).

Contribution

Ubuntu:

As I'm still very new to Ubuntu (only switched from Fedora about a year ago) I have no large track-record yet. Only recently my cairo-clock found its way into feisty's universe-repository. Furthermore I started a direct involvement in shaping a part of a future ubuntu release at the UDS 2006. Aside from that I do some sneakishly guerilla-marketing for ubuntu in the "loud and proud"-style... be it running around in an ubuntu-shirt at Windows-centric events with handing out CDs (e.g. [http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=296375822&size=o here] and [http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=296376139&size=o here]), just helping my friends or peers making the switch from proprietary system to Ubuntu or putting CDs from shipit in local computer-stores in my hometown.

General (more upstream-ish):
