I am Dave Chiluk. I currently work for Canonical in their STS Engineering group which is the bug-fix arm for the Ubuntu-Advantage product. When I'm not working on customer issues, I try to spend time bug-fixing for the distro both in main and universe packages. I have fixes in a wide variety of packages including the kernel.

Professional Career

Personal Life
I enjoy Volleyball, Car repair, and Home improvement. I've also enjoy lindy hop and other forms of swing dancing where I've competed in a number of competitions.

= My Ubuntu story =
My first experience with linux was with Redhat 5.2 in 1999 as a student because I needed a C compiler, and didn't want to pay for Borland's. I've used Linux in one way or another ever since, and it's been my sole desktop OS since 2004. My first ubuntu version was Edgy Eft, after a co-worker caught me complaining about some poorly written fedora package dependencies. I've been assisting users on launchpad since 2008, and have been submitting fixes/SRUs since 2012.

Things I could do better

Plans for the future

General

I would like to eventually be recognized as a Core Developer.

What I like least in Ubuntu

I dislike that apt-get/dpkg requires a separate package in order to search for which uninstalled package that provides a specific file. Yum has a search utility built in which doesn't require an additional helper package. I admit this is purely a quibble.
