At the moment, I'm a Year 12 student in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. I've been using Linux since my father introduced me to Red Hat 7.0 in mid-2000. I then switched to Slackware for a while, then Debian, and finally Ubuntu (in January 2005). I've not left Ubuntu since. | I'm an Ubuntu and Launchpad developer, nowadays working for Canonical on the Ubuntu Engineering Continuous Integration team.

=== Helping in #ubuntu === Since slightly after the release of Ubuntu 5.10, I have been fairly regularly helping in the Ubuntu support IRC channel (#ubuntu). I have become more active since the release of Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, generally helping for multiple hours each day. === Ubuntu AustralianTeam === Around the release of Ubuntu 5.10, YukiCuss and I started the AustralianTeam. It consists at the moment of about 60 Australian Ubuntu users who wish to help spread the word, and is still growing. I currently manage the web/email hosting for the team. === Bug Triage === I am subscribed to the ubuntu-bugs mailing list, and triage many bugs within minutes of the inital report. I also often work through the list of unconfirmed bugs, trying to eventually eliminate it. === Wiki Updating === I have corrected/updated/fixed/beautified many wiki pages, with grammatical/spelling corrections, cleanups, updating for Ubuntu 6.06, etc. == Future Goals == For now, I'll continue bug triaging, promoting Ubuntu around Australia, helping in #ubuntu, and fixing up the wiki. In the future, I'd like to be more involved in the actual development (read: coding) of Ubuntu. |
