Hi, After submitting a few bugs and patches for various bits of the Ubuntu desktop (most recently the evil bug #20216), I thought I'd introduce myself to the list.
My name is William Lachance (although most people simply call me 'Will') and I work for NITI's Research and Development group in Montreal (http://open.nit.ca). I've been using (and loving) Ubuntu as my desktop since 2004, and have decided it's time to start giving something back (on my own time: most of my 'real' work involves proprietary software). I'm mostly interested in doing upstream development on the GNOME core and the Sabayon user profile editor (which I have a special soft spot for: I think it's an absolutely fantastic piece of technology with amazing potential), but I have a pretty decent amount of experience with both build and packaging systems, so I could foresee taking some responsibility for that eventually (we'll see how things go). I'm planning on hanging out on #ubuntu-desktop quite a bit in the new year: if you see an issue I might be interested in, feel free to poke me there (I go as 'wlach'). Chow for now, -- William Lachance [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
