| == About Nitesh Mistry == Nitesh Mistry has been using Kubuntu (and Linux) since Feisty days. KDE is his desktop of choice. He does not have any formal education on computers but is always enthusiastic about learning new tricks to improve efficiency on computers especially on command-line. |
== About Myself == I started using Kubuntu (and Linux) since Feisty days simply out of boredom of using Windows XP. But after knowing and understanding the philosophy behind Ubuntu and other FOSS, I am glad I ditched proprietary OS. KDE is my desktop of choice. I did 'distro-hopping' initially but eventually settled for Ubuntu because of its rocking community. |

| Regarding his contribution to the community, he has worked on Gujarati translations, system and wiki documentation and bugs triage (those which he can understand :-) ) === Wiki Pages Created === *[[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CreateEdubuntuLiveDVD|Help on creating Edubuntu Live DVD]] |
My involvement with the community is scattered at various places. I usually hang out on #kubuntu irc channel and grab the opportunity to show my ''coolness'' whenever I find a gullible noob is trying to get help. I also do the same with people posting questions at launchpad ;) and I also earn ''karma'' for doing it! :D Being a native speaker of Gujarati, I help in Gujarati translations at launchpad. I do basic bug-triage primarily because it helps me learn more about internal workings of the software. I also like interacting within my [[http://ubuntu-in.info | LoCo]] where all the wonderful Ubuntu users from India converge. |
