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 Xubuntu project as the Documentation Monkey. It's my job to lead the Xubuntu documentation team and to write helpful documentation. I live in Chicago, Illinois (CST). |

My involvement with the GNU/Linux community at large has been steadily increasing, and I'm now a participating member of the Chicago GNU/Linux User Group and the Ubuntu-Chicago Loco team. | You can always contact me via email - jwcampbell -ate- gmail dot comma.

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. :-) | === Team membership === |

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 rapidly developing my skills, and am willing to donate time and energy to these worthwhile projects in whatever way possible while I develop my skills. | * Ubuntu and Xubuntu team member * Member of Ubuntu Documentation Commiters Team * Member of Ubuntu Wiki team * Administrator of Ubuntu Chicago Loco Team * Administrator Xubuntu Testers * Member of Xubuntu Users * Members of Ubuntu-Microblogging * Member of Ubuntu Illinois Loco Team * Member of Ubuntu Cyclists |
