=== General feedback ===

I have sponsored a few packages from Dan over the year and the ones I have seen were high quality.
Dan has the desire to do things right and he always accept constructive comments/feedbacks with a positive attitude.

He understands the principles of debian packaging and the SRU process and he is not afraid to ask questions when needed.
As a SRU uploader, it is always a pleasure to sponsor a patch from Dan, and I think he would be a great addition to the SRU uploader launchpad team.

=== Specific Experiences of working together ===

Dan is a colleague and I work with him for the past 2 years now. Dan's role is to drive bugs into resolution by troubleshooting, fixing bugs, providing guidance & workarounds, for different areas of expertise which may cover areas such as: kernel, drivers, virtualization, network, cloud, storage setups, ... and physical/virtual environment orchestration.

=== Areas of Improvement ===

Who I am

I started with UNIX is 1993, using Solaris, and then moved to Linux in 1997 using Slackware, Red Hat, and now Ubuntu. I began Linux kernel development in 2001, in the USB subsystem, and have contributed since then in various kernel subsystems including memory management, networking, and crypto.

My Ubuntu story

I joined Canonical in 2015 as part of the Support and Technical Services Engineering team, and have been working on problems that reach into many different parts of Ubuntu; the kernel, networking, multipath, udev, and more. I enjoy digging deep into technical details and solving problems.

My involvement

Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of

My sponsored uploads:

Bug fix contributions:

todo - include only kernel bugs, other uploads enumerated at above link

Areas of work

Most of my work is done in the kernel, both upstream and in Ubuntu's branches.

Things I could do better

Time management is difficult for everyone, as we never have enough time to complete everything we want to do. I hope to manage my time better, balancing work and family while also continuing to contribute upstream.

Plans for the future

General

Continue contributing to the kernel and Ubuntu packages.

What I like least in Ubuntu

Documentation is sometimes hard to come by, or out of date.
