## Add more than listed in table for contact if you like, such as IMs, or other social networks you frequent. If you prefer not to post publicly things like your email, you can list such contact information on launchpad a more private network. == About Me ==
When I started with my community work in nov-dec of 2010 I wouldn't have thought that I would get so involved with projects. I planned on staying a bit in the background, only to help others when I absolutely was sure about an answer. Learning and helping as I went I got involved with the [[https://launchpad.net/~speechcontrolteam| SpeechControl Team]]. More about this at Team Memberships.

== About Me ==
Describe yourself. What do you do in your spare time, what kind of computer and linux experience do you have? Tell as much as you feel comfortable, we don't need to know exactly where you live, we don't do stalking. Maybe you want to sub divide it into sections if it gets long.
I was also interested in the lightweight [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam/Derivatives|(unofficial) derivative]] of Ubuntu called [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu|Lubuntu]]. In jan-feb 2011 I joined [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lubuntu|#lubuntu]] and [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lubuntu-offtopic|#lubuntu-offtopic]] channels to get to know the team and help where possible.

On a more casual side-note: I play the clarinet, bass-clarinet, saxophone and sing Tenor.

=== Software Engineering ===
I'm being trained at the moment to become a software designer and as such I've got skills in designing software and managing people for development. On a previous version of my wiki I stated that I wouldn't shock the world with my programming skills, and I still stand by that statement. I'm enjoying psychology in designing software, so I design from the users perspective. That way all the functions implemented in the software are easy to use and located at logical places.

=== My Guide ===
In January I've been asked by [[UndiFineD]] if I could become his first Apprentice. I gracefully accepted his offer. With the Council meeting preceding the UBT meeting of March I was eventually been accepted as an UBT member. However I keep a good relationship with my former Guide.
Line 17: Line 33:
{*} List memberships you have or are apprenticing in (i.e. if your a padawan in Beginners Team).
 * Bullets are good for lists.
  * Indent more and they change.
=== Lubuntu ===
I've joined [[Lubuntu]] to do wiki work over there. Lubuntu is a young project which can definitely can use the help with wiki work. Admins are few and their head suddenly disappeared, so I'm stepping in to help them out.

=== Speechcontrol ===
I'm a member in the [[https://launchpad.net/~speechcontrolteam|Speechcontrol Team]] because their objective is to control the computer via speech, which would be quite awesome. They have gathered a lot of developers already who have worked on parts that are necessary for this project.

##=== LoCo ===
Line 22: Line 42:
What are you planning on doing in imediate and longer future? Doesn't have to all have to do with linux, looking at a degree or certification? Looking for membership to a team? At the moment I'm studying to become Bachelor of ICT in the field of Programming. While I'm doing this, I plan on also getting a few certificates in Linux and http/php/css.
Line 25: Line 45:
{*} I'm currently working on IM Solo, a single window multi-protocol instant messenger. I'm working on IM Solo, a single window multi-protocol instant messenger. I got the idea at [[http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/12/one-window-empathy-boy-would-it-simplify-my-life/|OMG!Ubuntu!]] and have been working on it from time to time. It's going to be written in Genie and is probably going to use
telepathy as protocol engine.

I'm currently reading up on creating websites from an accessibility point instead of a design point. Should be good to learn it from the get go from this standpoint, so all of my future websites are easily accessible for everyone. (World, come to me ;-) )
Line 28: Line 51:
Note: Often people like to list their major contributions, so people know the good work they've done. When you apply for membership to restricted teams, the senior members usually like knowing what you've done before. In this example, several subsections exist. The more work you do, the longer this section will become.

=== Support ===
 {*} On Ubuntu Forums (link to account) as, I do....

=== Forum Guides: ===
 {*} I've written X guides, and link to them.

=== Wiki ===
I've edited and made contributions to following pages...
 {*} Link to Wiki page, people can see page history you don't need to point out exactly what edits you made.
Because my contribution will only accumulate I've decided to move my contribution section [[./MrChrisDruif/Contributions|here]]
Line 41: Line 54:

## If you decide to apply for Ubuntu Membership it is advised that you have some testimonials written by other people.

##You should leave this section empty. It is for other members to fill, do ask them though.
Because a lot of people were putting up testimonials (thanks everyone!) I've moved it to a sub-page, which can be found [[./MrChrisDruif/Testimonials|here]]
