About me

I'm Amin Bandali (or just bandali) and I'm an Ubuntu Developer. I'm a Software Engineer on the Desktop Team at Canonical, where I work mainly on the maintenance of Ubuntu's Firefox packages as well as other aspects of the Ubuntu desktop.

I'm an activist for user freedom by passion, and a software developer/engineer by profession.

Contributions

Currently I work mainly on the maintenance of Ubuntu's Firefox packages as part of the ~mozillateam and ~ubuntu-mozilla-security teams, in addition to other aspects of the Ubuntu Desktop as a member of ~ubuntu-desktop. I also work on other parts of Ubuntu, such as merges/syncs of packages from Debian and +1 maintenance rotations.

Upstream of Ubuntu, as a Debian Developer I maintain Debian's opendht and jami/ring packages, and participate in several teams including gnome-team and emacsen-team.
