''Tell us a bit about yourself.'' | Hi, I'm Sean Davis, better known as bluesabre in the Ubuntu world. I am a current Ubuntu member, the Xubuntu Technical Lead, and long-time contributor to several of the core applications included with Xubuntu. As the newly appointed Xubuntu Technical Lead, I continue to provide development support and package maintenance for the Xfce packages in Xubuntu. I have been contributing to package maintenance in Ubuntu and Debian through vairious sponsors. I currently seek upload rights of the Xubuntu package set to better support my team's development efforts and lessen the load of the already-overworked sponsors. |

''Tell us how and when you got involved, what you liked working on and what you could probably do better.'' | I started contributing to Xubuntu in 2011, reporting artwork and usability bugs for the various applications in the base Xubuntu installation. I was welcomed into the Xubuntu community where I continued to report bugs. Shortly thereafter, I began fixing bugs, incorporating new features, and even maintaining several of the Xubuntu applications. After contributing for two years, I finally obtained my Ubuntu membership. Now I am working towards becoming a full-fledged Xubuntu Developer. With direct access to uploads, I hope to ease the burden of packaging on our current developers, and to more quickly provide stability and security updates to our userbase. |
