I have used in the past primarily RedHat, and SUSE, but since the release of Hoary, I use (U|Ku|Edu|Xu)buntu exclusively. Unix/Linux has always been part of my life in IT.

Other Open Projects

I am involved in [http://www.pgdp.net/ Distributed Proofreaders] and [http://www.gutenberg.org Project Gutenberg].

I have started an open source project, which in the future should give schools an alternative to proprietary Information Management System. I hope that this could become one day part of edubuntu.
