I, Andres Rodriguez, apply for core-dev.

Who I am

My name is Andres Rodriguez, originally from Peru, but living in the US after completing a MSc in Telecommunications and Networking. I've been involved in the Ubuntu Community for quite a while now.

My Ubuntu story

It all began in 2007-12-02 when I became an Official Ubuntu Spanish Translator. After that, I became of of the Council Member for the Ubuntu Peruvian LoCo Team. This work, plus various conferences allowed me to became an Official Ubuntu Member.

In 2009-04-28 I started the Ubuntu High Availability team along with Ante Karamatic (ivoks) after determining that the HA Cluster Stack in Ubuntu was in bad shape, with the ideal to maintain it and improve it. Because of this, I wanted to be able to maintain the packages myself and I got involvement with development (in the Karmic cycle), with a MOTU Mentorship, being Ante my mentor. Short after that I became an Ubuntu MOTU Developer (2009-09-10).

Since then I've been contributing to Ubuntu in many ways.

As a community member I participated in various UDS'.

• UDS-L Dallas: Where we held a Cluster Stack session with Ante.

• UDS-M Brussels: Where we held another Cluster Stack session with Ante, and I held a TestDrive PyGTK Front-end session.

• UDS-N Orlando: Where I held another Cluster Stack session, and I held a PowerNap improvements session.
