2. Background
- -------------
Applicant writes:
My full name is Chow Loong Jin, where "Chow" is my surname and "Loong
Jin" is my given name (I don't really like the first/last name
distinction, as this is pretty inaccurate in terms of my name).
I am a Malaysian student studying Computer Engineering at the Nanyang
Technological University in Singapore.
I actually started off as a Windows user, up to the point where I began
testing the beta release of Windows Vista. I rather fancied the idea of
having multiple virtual desktops, so I began looking into Compiz, which
made its debut at around that time. I was also dabbling into web
development at that point in time, so I figured it might be nice to try
switching over to Linux, since many scripting languages I was looking
into at that time (Perl, PHP, Ruby) seemed to have Linux as their native
platform. After creating a thread on the WebDesignForums
(http://www.webdesignforums.net) asking for a recommendation of a good
Linux distribution to begin with, I came across Ubuntu, and have been
using it on my desktops and notebook since. (I do use Debian on all of
the server installations I make/maintain, though).
I'm currently volunteering my time to Debian because I find it an
enjoyable experience to maintain Debian packages, and also because it
gives me a sense of pride. Aside from that, I don't really like
installing things from source, and tend to create binary packages for
anything I'd like to install on my system. It only makes sense to
release the work I've done to the Debian archives after that.
My primary area of interest in Debian is package maintenance, which I
have been doing for a number of packages (as seen in
(http://qa.debian.org/[email protected]).
