Ubuntu Wiki

This Page is horribly out of date. I will fix it soon(ish)

What do I do in Ubuntu?

• Ubuntu user since it was called http://no-name-yet.com
  Maintaining Edubuntu website
  Maintaining Xubuntu website
  Afrikaans translation on Rosetta/Launchpad
  Fridge Undercover reporter
  Edubuntu testing and documentation
  Approve Edubuntu members as part of the Edubuntu Council
  Squash bugs in Malone
  General loudmouth about everything free software
  Maintaining tuXlab, the most widely used Ubuntu derivative in South Africa

And during dayjob?

• Chief Technical Officer at Inkululeko Technologies (our website is currently near non-existant, but don't let that deceive you)
  Maintainer of customised Ubuntu distribution used in 200+ Schools in South Africa (currently nicknamed Skubuntu, will probably be called tuxlabuntu later from August 2006)
  Maintainer of customised Ubuntu distribution for Digital Doorway project Harrass Ubuntu Developers on IRC (but in a very CoC friendly way)
