shanepatrickfagan
Hi, my name is Shane Fagan. Im from kildare in Ireland. Im a second year software development student. The programming languages I know are Java, VB.net, 8086 and python. Ive been using ubuntu for 2 years now, I help out on a load of ubuntu projects and help out in the Irish Ubuntu Community.
I am a developer and I am currently getting involved in a number of upstream developments like Zeitgeist and a little testing for Gnome-Shell. Im really exited about the future of Gnome-Desktop and cant wait to help integrate Gnome-Shell into ubuntu.
I help out with ubuntu-docs and ubuntu answers on launchpad. Bug reporting and testing of new ubuntu releases.
I love testing the new releases of ubuntu and the upstreams im exited by and showing off the new features to my friends (shamelessly trying to convert everyone to ubuntu 
)

Shane is a key part of the Irish LoCo team, it is not uncommon to find him in #ubuntu-ie IRC communicating well with other users and he has a very unique way of seeing the world. I truly believe what Ubuntu needs is more people like Shane who can help contribute to Ubuntu especially with the Irish translation team in launchpad. - Christopher Swift, Point of Contact of Ubuntu Cymru
