| = My Genesis = My interests on IT started way back when I got my first computer, only 6 years ago, when I was 24 (yes I am 30 now :) !). The first OSes I '''''used?''''' were M$ Winnie NT and 98, and it took me a couple of days to notice they did not work ok for a '''personal computer'''. |

| As soon as I could afford it, I got an iBook 500 Mhz, DVD. It was only then that I felt what the concept of PC really meant. I felt great doing almost anything I wanted/needed to do on that machine.

Projects I am daily working for
Basically, nowadays I have much less time to volunteer, so I have focused mainly on 2 things:
- Answer questions about Edubuntu from spanish speakers.
Evangelise about Ubuntu and its flavors, and also about MoinMoin wiki whenever there is someone to pay attention.
Also, some of the Ubuntu only related stuff I tried to do:
OBSOLETE? EdubuntuStudyPackages -> Educational content via apt-get install'em
EdubuntuSoftwareList (now merged into EdubuntuInstalledApplications) -> this needs a lot of cross curricular crossing

Some experience
I have worked as a teacher, as a translator (into Spanish), as a basic IT support guy. I have helped design some web systems for education. I have been a bridge between tech guys and sales people in order to fulfill many different clients needs. For all that, the faithful Tux has always been my partner on every adventure.
