Hi
My name is Hjorleifur I am a 30 year old sysadmin and an avid Linux user from Iceland currently living in Sweden. I have been using Redhat/RHEL/FEDORA since Cartman(6.1) and probably every release since. As well as other Linux Distros, NetBSD,FreeBSD etc. I have experience in running production environment's for financial institutions. Past roles I have held are Software developer (c++,vb,vb.net) on windows ;). DBA Team Leader (Oracle and SQL Server),Infrastructure Team Leader running VMware VI3 clusters, Linux, Windows, Hpux servers and various application servers on thees platforms. And recently I have been experimenting with Opensolaris.
The fields/technology's that interest me most are Cloud computing , clusters hpc(though I do have not much experience there) and fail over, load balance and virtualization.
I am interested in helping Fedora move forward and if can help that would great.
With regards Hjorleifur

Hey, welcome - we're heavy users of virtualization (currently mostly xen and possibly looking at some KVM too). I think there's actually a cloud project going on at the moment, although I'm not 100% what stage that is at right now.
We have some pretty simple load balancing for our web apps with haproxy, and at least one use of heartbeat, although I'm not all that familiar with the heartbeat setup either.
We usually hang out on #fedora-admin on Freenode, and we have weekly meetings in #fedora-meeting on Thursdays at 20:00 UTC - if you can make tomorrow's meeting, make sure to come and say hi.
Thanks, Ricky
