Myrtti
I'm a Miia Ranta from Finland, better known as Myrtti, born on 1980.
I've been Ubuntu user since February 2005. I've been more or less active in [http://www.ubuntu-fi.org Ubuntu Suomi] (Finnish Loco team) being the first moderator of the discussion board, been a contact person between the non-profit organization [http://www.flug.fi Finnish Linux User Group], the [http://www.coss.fi Finnish Centre for Open Source Solutions] ("FLUG for companies" , my former employer) and Ubuntu Suomi. I currently work from home in a Finnish open source company called [http://www.nomovok.com Nomovok].
My participation has been varying from getting a foot between the doors of [http://www.assembly.org Assembly'07] for FLUG and Ubuntu Suomi to IRCing on #ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic, #ubuntu-fi, #ubuntu-fi-tiimit, #ubuntu-women, #ubuntu-ops, #ubuntu-irc and #xubuntu. I'm currently an operator on 7 of the aforementioned, though try to use my powers as rarely as possible and don't even frequent some of the channels unless requested.
Relating stuff that I'm intrested in are the audio player Exaile, which I've translated to Finnish, maemo and Nokia's Internet Tablets, localisation in general, irssi, various last.fm clients, women in ICT and open source and open solutions in education.
My personal pages are normally visible at [http://myrtti.fi], I can be found on Linkedin, Facebook, [https://launchpad.net/~myrtti Launchpad] etc. as Miia Ranta. my email address is the obvious gmail one with my nick.
Cheers from others
Miia is a valuable IRC operator and contributor and has been so for a long time. Myrtti ftw! -- Dennis Kaarsemaker (may 27 2008)
