Personal Life

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/IRC since 2008, and have been submitting fixes/SRUs since 2012.

In general, I feel I have a very strong grasp of the SRU/bug fix process.
Things I could do better
I need to become better acquainted with the development release processes, +1 maintenance, ftbs fix procedure for development releases, MIR, image creation etc.
Plans for the future
General
I would like to eventually become 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.
Community - Ubuntu is a community, it's also a community that can be pretty hard or intimidating for even smart people to break into. I think we still have some room for improvement here. Specifically in the areas of attribution, community mentor-ship, and involvement.
