About Me
I'm Nathan Heafner, im 25 years of age, currently Living in North Carolina, USA. I'm extremely interested in privacy, anonymity, and pseudonym.

I started using Linux in 2004 when my Windows computer crashed and I wanted to try Linux because it was "Free". I started using PClinux then Debian and puppy Linux for a while. Like many users, I was introduce to linux by discussion from online forums. The fact that linux was free gave me the confidence to try it out, I had nothing to loose. After around 6 months of using Linux I made the full switch in around 2005. I'm interested in expanding the Linux user-base, assisting with testing, promoting ideas on brainstorm, and building Linux oriented skills that are relevant in the current workplace.
IRC
Usually you'll find me somewhere in these channels:
OFTC
- #ubuntu
- #debian-ubuntu
Freenode
- #ubuntu
- #ubuntu-devel
- #ubuntu-bugs
- #ubuntu-testing
- #ubuntu-docs
- #Linux
and I'm usually idling/parked in other random channels.

I have been a long time advocate and can account for many new users from my local community. I have been beta testing for the majority of this time. I have lately been heavily involved with Launchpad Answers and assisting with FAQ's and some Minor documentation improvements. I like to assist users on Launchpad and enjoy answering questions.
Misc:
- learning Ruby, what a fun language
I partake in dogfooding http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food
- Assisting users in IRC on various channels
- Knowledgeable with Wordpress, drupal, phpbb, joomla, and various other CMS's.
- I like politics
Future:
My roadmap for the near future includes:
- Get into iso testing and documentation
- Applying for Ubuntu Membership. UPDATE. I am scheduled for an upcoming meeting!
- Joining the documentation team, I feel like I can be a large asset with documentation.
