I report bugs which affect my hardware, which is currently a ibook. I havent done any testing for edgy. Hopefully, all that will change with Fiesty. I report bugs which affect my setups.

I am also part of the [http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org EasyUbuntu] developers team. My main motivation is that projects like this will always exist, so it might be better to influence them by contributing to them (code-wise), instead of complaining about how unsafe they are, as new users will definetly not care.

I have been using Linux on and off since 2002. After the Hoary release, I replaced by OS X installation with Ubuntu on my powerbook and have since never looked back. Ubuntu is an operating system I was very impressed with. (I used to use Yellow Dog Linux and Debian before. I even tried Gentoo,lol). It has a very friendly community, and makes it pretty easy to ask questions and contribute back to Ubuntu. I now run Mac OS X from within Ubuntu, thanks to the MacOnLinux project!

I have installed Ubuntu on my ibook, on my friends Toshiba laptop, another friends AMD64 machine just to test out Ubuntu on various platforms. I also run a Ubuntu server at work.

I currently use Dapper on my ibook with no current plans to upgrade!

Ubuntu Activities

Support

The amount of time I spend on Linux has reduced dramatically since I started working. IRC time has reduced significantly, though I hope that all that will change now :).

Documentation

As a part of the Ubuntu doc team, I am working on the Kubuntu Docs for Gutsy.

Bugs

I report bugs which affect my setups.

Other

Used to maintain [http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org EasyUbuntu].

Future Plans

  • Getting Kubuntu Desktop Guide in time for Gutsy!
  • Greater involvement in Documentation Team activities (and hence understanding).
