About Me
Hi everyone, I'm Luca Ciavatta aka cialu, I am from Ravenna, Italy, but I dream to live in Berlin. I'm passionate about IT, tech, Linux and the Open Source World, so I try to spread this wonderful verb as I can.
I have studied Environmental Science at the University of Bologna and I'm also a qualified IT technician. I like to learn and I'm also a hobbyist-developer. I used many operating systems, but none satisfy me completely, so I switched to Ubuntu and loved it!

AskUbuntu:
I answer questions on AskUbuntu, vote up/down stuff and gain Karma through interaction with other users. At all, participating in this community, increase my Ubuntu/Debian knowledge and experience.Bug Report:
from May 2015 I contribute to bug reports of Ubuntu operating system and applications. Collect and retrieve useful information for developers to solve the various problems that arise.Chiedi:
I started participating in Chiedi at October 2015, creating an account on the portal, and trying to help other users by answering their questions. Obviously, often and willingly, I also try to solve my many doubts. For international users, Chiedi is a sort of Italian AskUbuntu.Design:
I have participated in several editions of the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase, contributing with graphic images, photographs and drawings, made or elaborated through opensource tools such as GIMP and Inkscape. In older cases, I also used proprietary solutions such as Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop. During the cycle for the release of Ubuntu 17.10 Artful Aardvark, one submission of mine was selected and became one of the default wallpapers of the distribution. I am also having fun in creating and editing graphics themes for various Linux DE shell. As for Ubuntu, I have created and maintained AmbianceDF, a theme based on the classic Ambiance, but modernized with tones of different and lively colors. All the shades, except the characteristic blue of the theme, have been taken from the color palette of the Ubuntu Design brand.Membership:
Officially, at the present, I only received membership from the italian SocialMedia group, from the Ubuntu Wiki Editors and from Launchpad Translators.Promotion:
from June 2016 I started to follow closely the activities of the Promotion Group and from October 2016 I am part of the SocialMedia group as editor for the Italian newsletter and Ubuntu news blog.Testing:
