 * I've been using Ubuntu since February 2007 (Dapper). I have previous experience with Unix (Xenix and SCO) as system administrator and applications programmer in commercial enterprises. When I discovered Ubuntu, I decided to be an active member of Ubuntu community because of the amazing people you can find there and its great philosophy. In May 2007 I've signed the Ubuntu CoC to be completely commited with this community. I think technology without people has no entity, has no sense.

 * I'm using Ubuntu since Dapper. I have previous experience with Unix (Xenix and SCO) as server administrator (sysadmin) until meet Linux, Ubuntu in particular. Then I decided to be an active member of Ubuntu community because of the amazing people you can find here.  * I started my active local community participation organizing the Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex Release Party in Buenos Aires, supporting Tucuman and Cordoba RPs in many ways too (getting merchandising stuff and all the logistic management necessary to send it to each city from BsAs just in time for the parties, gathering pictures from each party to publish them in the Ubuntu-ar web site, etc., etc.). In this BsAs II RP I had the toaster role, introducing the keynotes speakers for each presentation and closing the mini conferences thanking all the people there for their presence and their great jobs.

 * Carry out all necessary actions in order to train people (of Argentina LoCo Team) in Ubuntu (as project) and make them part of the community (as Ubuntu Members), in this way the work team would become stronger and broader.

I am pleased with the amount and quality of Guillermo's work on the local Ubuntu Community.
