Hi, I am Morgan Collett.
I'm located in Cape Town, South Africa.
I've used Debian since 1998, including sysadmining http://www.thawte.com on Hamm, Slink, Potato and Woody. I have run Ubuntu as my primary OS since Warty preview.
I provide PKI and digital signature consulting - see http://www.mcode.co.za
During 2005 I was a (paid) Launchpad developer.
Current Ubuntu Activities
Working on getting our SouthAfricanTeam (see LoCoTeams) more active as it was basically dormant for about 18 months after it was started. I've been getting excitement going using the mailing list, and putting a lot into the LoCo team's wiki (http://www.ubuntu-za.org/Wiki). Here are some links:
