About Me
I am a Dipl.-Inf. from the Technical University of Darmstadt, and have obtained a MSc in Computer Science/Telecommunications from the University of Texas at Dallas. I also have a LLB (Hons) from The Open University.
My occupations in the IT world have been broad, with functions embracing support, development, project and product management, as well as marketing. Currently I focus on IT in Education. I am also an Associate Lecturer and Teaching Fellow with The Open University.
Unix/Linux has always been part of my life in IT. I worked extensively with HPUX and solaris and had my first steps with Linux in the middle of the 90s. I have used RedHat and SUSE in the past, but since the release of Hoary, I exclusively use (U|Ku|Edu|Xu)buntu.
(U|Ku|Edu|Xu)buntu
I am interested to contribute my skills and experience wherever it is helpful. Currently I am helping with:
- answering other users' questions,
- translating,
- bug reporting,
- bug triage
- and the fixing of bugs.
- packaging/maintaining
- KDE4 apps
I would like to be advance to the ranks of MOTU within a reasonable timeframe.
I am an active member of the following launchpad groups:
I am a member of the kubuntu-de.org team and a member of its community council.
I have also introduced Ubuntu servers at a local College and I am in the process to fully replace the majority of Windows server with Ubuntu. Currently, I am introducing moodle on Ubuntu as virtual learning environment. I am developing an achievement and target tracker as a moodle module to help students in their self-assessment.
I have initiated the bug-triage efforts on 5-a-day for kubuntu-de.org.
I was a presenter at the Ontario Linux Fest 2008 with the topic of (K)ubuntu bug triage.
I am maintaining a couple of KDE packages for Kubuntu and Debian and I am also currently the lead developer for a Kubuntu based market-targeted distribution.
Short-term and Medium-Term Goals
- MOTU
- KDE4 apps
- Promoting Kubuntu in Southwestern Ontario and neighboring areas
Organizing BugJams for local LUG and student clubs
Acceptance of Kubuntu-de.org as official LoCo
Other Open Projects
I am involved in Distributed Proofreaders and 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.
