Hi, I'm a Ruby developer working commercially with web applications in Dublin. I think that Ireland has great potential to be a high profile Open Source location and would like to see more FOSS development getting done in Ireland. Ubuntu is an important part of this as
- It's a great development platform
- Has a great community focus which will help get developers interested; who may not otherwise see merit in patching FOSS projects
If you're interested in joining the Open Source scene in Ireland as a developer, I'd be interested to hear from you at my contact details below.
My FOSS and Ubuntu contributions to date include
- Running Free Ruby Lessons for newbie developers
- Code contributions to f-spot, freemix, bzr (pending approval by bzr patch manager)
- Bug reports on update-manager, mysql, mono-debugger
Podcasting on Open Source development at http://www.codemongrel.com
Blogging on Open Source development at http://www.theirishpenguin.com
- Attending and helping out at FOSS events in Dublin
In development terms outside of Ruby, I also like to hack on Ubuntu desktop apps and enjoy Python development along with the odd bit of Mono C#.
