About Me
I've been a long term Linux "hobbiest" having started experimenting with Linux distros (primarily Debian) quite a few years ago. However, the past couple of years I had been using a dual boot setup with Ubuntu and Windows. Since I found myself rarely needing to boot into Windows(really only to use my printer that has NO support in Linux), I finally switched completely to Ubuntu.
I currently find myself with far too much time on my hands due to health issues, and as such, have opted to devote some time towards helping within Ubuntu where I am able. I always enjoy helping others and learning news things along the way.
Team Memberships
Ubuntu Bug Squad Ubuntu Canada Ubuntu Testing Ubuntu Documentation Team
Future Plans & Projects
For the time being, simply learning and contributing all that I can.
Contributions to the Ubuntu Community
Currently, encouraging friends and family to to open up to the idea Free Software and converting those I can to use or try Ubuntu and it's derivatives.
I have been spending time in #ubuntu offering assistance when I am able. My current situation leaves me with plenty of time on my hands, so I am frequently online at varying times anywhere from 05:00 to 00:00 UTC.
As well, I have made some VERY minor patches for the Ubuntu Documentation Team to get a feel for the process and work towards getting involved more in-depth. I have also been slowly working on getting more involved with the Ubuntu Bug Squad.
