| === Non-Ubuntu === Before joining the Ubuntu project I worked with the Amarok project for about two years. I was part of the Rokymotion (promotion) team, but I also gave massive amount of user support. Apart from working with open source projects, we run our own IT services company in Finland named [[http://alshain.fi/|Alshain]] (where we also emphasize open source solutions). |

| ''Whatever I do, I do with full heart.'' | === Outside Ubuntu === Before Xubuntu, I worked with user support and the '''Rokymotion''' marketing team in the [[https://amarok.kde.org/|Amarok]] project for about two years from 2006 to 2008. |

In 2010, I founded the [[https://shimmerproject.org|Shimmer Project]] with ''Steve Dodier''. The Shimmer Project is still contributing artwork for Xubuntu, but has since gathered much broader audience. Maintained projects include the '''Albatross''', '''Bluebird''' and '''Greybird''' desktop suites and the "Shimmer" layout, extension and modification for [[https://gmusicbrowser.org/|gmusicbrowser]]. |

| == Testimonials of others == * knome is a dedicated individual who is working hard to make Xubuntu better. He is often in #xubuntu and #xubuntu-devel assisting others with solid knowledge. He is always considerate of others and willing to help. knome's work in Xubuntu artwork is being used in Jaunty 9.04. As Xubuntu Marketing Lead, his attempts to bring together the Ubuntu alternatives as a working discussion group are commendable. An outstanding individual and a pleasure to have on the team. --[[Launchpad:~charlie-tca]] |
