About Me
I've been using Linux since 1998, starting with Red Hat. I quickly moved to Debian for a long time, then to Ubuntu during the WartyWarthog release. My local LUG is the Townsville Linux Users Group, for which I administer both the website and Freenode irc channel (#tlug) voluntary. I am also a member of Linux Australia. In the past I have also done a little bit of writing for the KDE Documentation Team and even won prizes for it!
== My Interest in Ubuntu ==
I'm a member of the Ubuntu DocumentationTeam and currently the maintainer/author of the ["FAQGuide" Ubuntu Starter Guide]. I am interested in writing top quality documentation for the Ubuntu Linux operating system that rivals or bests any other documentation available elsewhere.
How Have I Contributed to Ubuntu?
I am the maintainer/author of the Ubuntu Starter Guide that was released with BreezyBadger and available via Yelp in every Ubuntu BreezyBadger installation. Based off ubuntuguide.org, the ["FAQGuide" Ubuntu Starter Guide] aims to address several key criticisms whist being technically correct and open to the Ubuntu community. I also help maintain other documents in the DocumentationTeam subversion repository and help out new contributors to Ubuntu documentation.
I also help out the WikiTeam by writing new guides or editing things I think need changing on the Ubuntu wiki. Some examples of my wiki-related work where I have contributed significantly include:
Other non-documentation things I have contributed to the Ubuntu community include:
- ["Presentations"] - Promoting Ubuntu and Linux in my local community
["LaptopTestingTeam/CompaqPresarioM2000"] - Current contact for my laptop on the LaptopTestingTeam
- Helping out in the #ubuntu IRC channel on Freenode
