| I've been using Ubuntu since March of 2006, and it was the first GNU/Linux distribution that got me "hooked" on Linux. Prior to using Ubuntu, I had used Red Hat Linux 9, Mandrake Linux (back when it was actually called "Mandrake"), and even had several failed-usage attempts involving Gentoo. | I contribute to the Ubuntu and GNOME documentation projects, with occasional contributions to the Xubuntu documentation.

| Not only that, but I am also a regular volunteer/community member of Free Geek Chicago, an organization dedicated to helping the "needy get nerdy." Free Geek Chicago recycles used technology to provide computers, education, internet access and job skills training to the underserved communities of Chicago. We also happen to use Xubuntu as our Linux distribution of choice. :-) In terms of my online Ubuntu-related activites, you will often find me in irc rooms such as #xubuntu, #ubuntu-chicago, #ubuntu-iso, #ubuntu-marketing, #xubuntu-devel, and #ubuntu-devel. I am not the most technically-savvy person in terms of coding skills, but I'm a decent writer, and am willing to donate time and energy to these worthwhile projects. == Skill Set == My "skills" are mainly in the support arena right now. I'm getting better at triaging bugs, reporting bugs, and assisting others in the community with learning how to do the same. Although I'm picking up docbook.xml and a little python, I would not consider myself a programmer. == My Contributions == See "Skill Set." :) Additionally, I'm an active member of the Ubuntu-Chicago loco team, actively involved in coordinating group meetings and projects. === Team Membership === * Administrator Xubuntu Testers * Member of Xubuntu Documentation Team * Member of Xubuntu Users * Member of ISO Testing Team (Approved) * Member of Ubuntu Chicago LoCo Team (Approved) * Member of Ubuntu Illinois LoCo Team (Approved) === Support & Bug Triage === * Tech support on #xubuntu on irc.freenode.net * Regular [https://launchpad.net/people/jwcampbell/+karma bug triaging] on launchpad and [https://launchpad.net/people/jwcampbell/+reportedbugs bug reporting]. === Documentation === * Very frequent contributor to Xubuntu Wiki pages ([:Xubuntu/]*) * Master bug reporter for the Xubuntu Desktop Guide ;-) === Community, Advocacy, & Marketing === * Regular volunteer at [http://www.freegeekchicago.org Free Geek Chicago], a non-profit community organization, recycling used computers for use by underserved populations. We currently use Xubuntu on all of our computers. === Code, Packaging, & Development === * I have looked at code before. I even know what "code" is. (Ok, I know a little php, and I'm going to pick up docbook.xml and a little python.) * Many of the things that I purchase come in packages. * I am actively developing myself as a person. == Plans & Goals == * Sure would be great to have solid Xubuntu documentation * Would like it even more if Xubuntu was included as a released image for all testing milestones. * I intend to be master ninja bug reporter and bug triager for Xubuntu and Xfce. * Some day I will become a member of the Xubuntu team. ---- '''Note''': ''Thanks to Cody Somerville for allowing usage of his awesome personal wiki page template!! :-) |
* Ubuntu team member * Member of Ubuntu Documentation Commiters Team * Member of Ubuntu Wiki team * gedit documentation lead for gedit v. 3.0 |
