The Homepage of Baishampayan Ghose
Hello, I am Baishampayan Ghose and I am an upcoming Ubuntu/Debian Developer from India. I have been using GNU/Linux for the past eight years and Ubuntu ever since Warty came out. I am also a Working group member of the Free Software Foundation of India. As of now, I don't have many direct contributions to Ubuntu per se, but I am a regular contributor to the Debian project, which I guess percolates down to Ubuntu anyway.
