About me

My name is Jim, and I've been using Ubuntu since March of 2006. Although I had some experience with other distributions since the Red Hat 9 days, Ubuntu was the first GNU/Linux distribution that got me "hooked" on Linux.

I'm currently the Xubuntu documentation lead, and am also very much involved with the Ubuntu-Chicago LoCo team and the Chicago GNU/Linux User Group. If you're interested in contributing to Xubuntu system documentation, please get in touch with me!
