Greetings and Introduction
by John McLean 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hi, My name is John McLean, and this summer I'm interning at Red Hat as a fedora intern. This introduction is about two weeks late, because I've been moving and only in the past few days have had ready access to a computer. At any rate, I'm a rising senior in high school at the NC School of Science and Math in Durham, North Carolina, USA. I've been using linux for the past 7 or so months, after a friend introduced me to it in the form of ubuntu. I used ubuntu for a while, and recently switched over to fedora, which is a great system. Over the summer I hope to join/create a linux user group in my community to help promote open source. Once school lets back in, I'll create a linux user group at my school for people to get together to talk and learn about linux/fedora and open source. Hopefully, I'll be hosting a fedora 10 install party as well, though most people at my school who use linux are ubuntu fanatics, so hosting a fedora 10 install party may be more of a challenge. Anyway, thats what I'm hoping to start with in terms of being a fedora ambassador to my community! want to know anything else, just ask. my irc nick is mcleanj, and I'm on irc most of the day. --John

New Ambassador introduction
by Matt Strawder 26 Jun '08

26 Jun '08

I just wanted to introduce myself as a new Ambassador. My name is Matt "Jobaja" Strawder. (The second "j" is like an "h" sound). I have been using Linux for 3 years now and Fedora for 3-4 months steady. I used Puppy Linux for 2 of those 3 years. I was one of the top 5 help contacts for Puppy Linux and helped with many things in the development of Puppy Linux. I also used Ubuntu off and on for 2 years. Aside from Linux I have been playing guitar for 9 years and I am a Audio/Video/Lighting specialist at my school and a few theaters nearby. I am happy and proud to be an Ambassador and I am excited to help as much as I can [Matt]^_^ _________________________________________________________________ Need to know now?

25 Jun '08

Hi, I am Rajan Vaish from India.A Computer Science Major currently pursuing my B.S (4th year) from Jaypee University of Information Technology,Solan,India .I have been programming in C & C++ for last 3 years and lately started working on Java.Apart from the same I have also worked on technologies like .NET(using C#),AJAX some PHP & J2EE. I have worked on UNIX and basic Shell Programming .Latter I was introduced to Linux world in College's Networking Lab,where on Fedora using C programs we were taught to Network(LAN).I have also used Linux for Compiler design Labs using LEX and YACC tools . Lately by participating at Google Summer of Code,I got an opportunity to intern for OLPC ( One Laptop Per Child ) and to develop a Geography teaching tool for children using Open Source technologies like OpenLayers,MapServer,GeoRSS and QGIS,where I also have to develop installer/packages for Windows/Linux (OLPC XO Laptops run on Fedora)/Macintosh of the tool created. I have not contributed to the Linux community earlier but with my existing knowledge and will to learn more and with my coming experiences with OLPC ,Fedora is going to last in my life forever and thats the platform I will be using for my final year project where I will be implementing a Ph.D thesis on a Computer Networking project from Stanford University.In the contributers program I saw that one can contribute in a number of ways,so I can help the community grow by spreading word about the same in my University and bring more value to the Fedora group.At times I can contribute to the Web Development and I have also worked on Internationalization while working on Google Gadgets ( http://www.googlemodules.com/author/Rajan+Vaish/ ) within 10 days of their release they have a statistics of more than 150 queries per day.I am thankful to be part of Fedora Ambassadors Program and ready to contribute in anyway I can.Thanks !!

Presentation
by Carlos Vassalo 24 Jun '08

24 Jun '08

Hi all, My name is Carlos Vassalo, I'm 38 years old and I live in Chennevières sur Marne - France. I'm an network admin and I work to BCP bank - Paris. My first linux (1997) was an Slackware 3.3 and RedHat 4.2 (Vanderbilt). I used it up to 9 (Shrike). Afterwards, I worked with various distros like SuSE, debian and similars, distros based on RedHat like Mandrake/Mandriva and finally LFS. When Fedora Core 1 was released, I tried it and I felt I had found "the" distro. Since beginning of 2007, I provide support on fedora-fr and I participate on various events like IP, etc... This year, I participated with few other members of fedora-fr to fundation of one users group : fedora | Paris. The issue of this group is essentially permit to the fedoristas of the region of Paris meet other fedoristas and diner, every two weeks. My plans to fedora project are : - Represent the region of Paris / Val de Marne - continue with active support to the new users - continue participating on fedora events like RMLL, FUDCon, IP, etc... - Promote fedora near potential users like student, ITs, etc... Kind regards, Carlos Vassalo

> Maybe you can explain the meaning of your nickname, I'm very curious ;) Or maybe not, as you probably already know what it means in portuguese. Let me keep this part of mystery. :D For non-portuguese speakers, I'll just say that it means "cheek". Mathieu PS: Carlos, don't say a word ! ^^
