About Me
I'm a retired applications developer (medical issues). My skill-set however is mostly unhelpful; relating to old 'blue dinosaurs'.
I first used GNU/Linux around 1998 but for years only used distros that contained GNU in their name (mostly debian). It wasn't until ~2010 that I finally tried Ubuntu.

I joined the UWN & news team for issue 425 (July 2015) as a summary writer. By issue 487 I was adding (occasional) articles to the doc for the next issue though only for Planet. At issue 502 I was finally stepped out of liferea using a browser to find & fill-the-doc preparing it for summary writers. I was sending the the summary emails by #512, and sometimes pasted to wiki for editing, running [upd/sec] scripts & sending email to editors. At issue 523 a new team started leading the UWN and I've returned to summary writer, though often post UWN to the fridge & social-media.
For the Ubuntu 17.10 freeze I started posting news to the fridge.
