In 2006 I install Ubuntu for the first time and since that time I use Ubuntu as my operating system on my private hardware. Ubuntu is for me a way of life that I thematize both in private life and in my career over again. I get many friends in this great community.

At the beginning of the year I set myself for the election of one of the tree project manager of the platform ubuntuusers.de - was chosen - and I've never regretted it until now. Next year I want to run for another termn as project manager. I understand my main activity as the project manager that all the team members of ubuntuusers.de (that are 70 people) can do their jobs without interference. It is my job, that this is possible. Another important point of this job is the content development of this platform. Not least, I try in this position, the platform users to show that Ubuntu is more than an operating system, namely, a philosophy. This is an important point for me, I will pick up again in the future.

I know Torsten for several years now. He is a very energetic and commited person for Ubuntu in the German community. He does quite a lot things in a very good way. Pretty much he is one of the guys I would like to see as Ubuntu members: involved, hard-working and contributing to either Ubuntu as philosophy and to the distribution of the operating system.
