About
I am currently a student studying electrical engineering at San Diego State University, in San Diego, California.BR I have been using linux since 2003, and Ubuntu since Hoary. I mostly use linux as a server, both for day-to-day use as well as development, including SSH, a webserver, Subversion, IMAP (and many more acronyms).BR I am comfortable in a good deal of programming languages, including C, C++, Perl, PHP, (and some not-so-programming-languages: SQL, CSS, HTML, etc). (I’m going to get around to learning Python eventually, honest.)
Contributions
My contributions to Ubuntu so far have been concentrated in IRC, where I have been an active participant since Fall of 2005. Some of my more quantitative contributions are to launchpad, including:
As well as miscellaneous other bugs submitted to other upstream projects over the years.
I’ve also contributed a bit to the wiki, random grammatical fixes, as well fixing all of the ‘sudo’ commands (sudo to gksudo/kdesu/gksu for graphical programs), which consisted of about 35 pages spanning both http://wiki.ubuntu.com and http://help.ubuntu.com, and most took place on 7/24/06. Here are a few examples (you can view the RecentChanges back to then for an exhaustive listing):
Goals
Sometime in the near future I hope to become a developer, I’m still not sure what I’d like to help with yet though. I’d also like to become a package maintainer, for some ncurses based programs I’d like to see in ubuntu.
