Hi there! My name is Chris Egeland, and I'm a 21 year old computer enthusiast living in Akron, Ohio USA. I've been interested in Linux for approximately 6-8 years now, and have played around with a handful of distributions in my lifetime, varying from Slackware, Knoppix, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and others. In the past few years, I've volunteered in varying capacities for small to mid-sized websites running varying distros of Linux. I've done a little bit of work with Django, some pretty extensive work with phpBB, MediaWiki, and a few other custom scripts that were developed for a specific site. So, with the experience of working with these packages, I have learned PHP, MySQL, and a bit of Python (something that I'm working on learning more extensively right now).
Outside of scripting and programming languages, I am pretty decent at writing configuration files (I actually read documentation, believe it or not). I work regularly with Apache Vhost configurations and httpd.conf configurations for a couple of sites. My own webserver currently runs Apache, PHP, MySQL, and will probably be running a Django site in the future once I am a little more familiar with Python. I've got a bit of experience under my belt with administering Linux servers. Mostly Debian, but with a recent project I have been working on, I have a bit of experience working with Fedora as well. I would love to help out however possible, and if there is room for me on the Infrastructure team, I would gladly step up to the plate to learn whatever is necessary. If anyone would like more information about myself, please feel free to ask. I have regular internet access. I am based in the Eastern US timezone, and I have the ability to be in contact with the team at almost any time (IRC/email anywhere if necessary). Like I mentioned earlier, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I look forward to hearing back from everyone, Chris Egeland _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure
