I am a computer engineer, MSc, PhD candidate, appointed since 2000 as an I.T. teacher in Ioannina, Greece. I've been developing open source software for almost 3 decades. Since 2009 I'm the lead developer in a Greek school tech support team that supports 1000+ schools using Ubuntu/LTSP, and I'm in charge of the https://blogs.sch.gr/plinetio/ that supports the secondary schools of Ioannina.
Contributions
I'm the lead developer of:
LTSP: Linux netbooting solution
Epoptes: computer lab management and monitoring tool
sch-scripts: Greek LTSP server administration software
GLOSSA: IDE and interpreter for a Greek programming language for high schools
Algorithmis: high schools programming activitities
Preschool activities: HTML5 preschool activities
Other open source related contributions:
I'm a Debian maintainer
I've set up and been maintaining the "Steki" forum where Greek IT teachers exchange concerns and ideas, with more than 10 million page hits since 2001
I've converted about 5 Gb of Windows-based Greek education software so that they run under Linux, packaged them in .debs and put them in repositories so that now installing all the necessary packages for e.g. a high school is as simple as apt-get install gymnasio
I've been helping in IRC channels, in forums, writing http://ts.sch.gr/wiki/Linux/LTSP, manuals, submitting bug reports and patches and generally helping out wherever I can
My github and launchpad pages have more details on those.
