About me

I am a self-described Linux power user wanting to take a more active role in the Ubuntu community. I have been using Linux since 1999, when I started with Debian potato (muchas gracias, Cristian!). Since then I have tried Red Hat, Gentoo, and SuSE, but I'm definitely committed to Ubuntu -- so much so that I bought a [http://www.system76.com system76] laptop in the summer of 2006.

For the past eight years I have been working in the litigation-support field, which (unfortunately for me) is still Windows-centric. I have though used Perl extensively for text manipulation and scripting, and I'm currently learning Python.

Community Participation

My contributions so far have been [https://launchpad.net/people/carenas2/+translations translations], [https://launchpad.net/people/carenas2/+reportedbugs bug reporting], and the occasional support offered in #ubuntu-es.

I am a member of the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ColombianTeam Colombian LoCo] and [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewYorkTeam New York LoCo] teams.

Planes y visión de Ubuntu en Colombia

  • crear un espacio de interacción para la comunidad de usuarios y desarrolladores de Ubuntu
  • organizar o participar en eventos para dar a conocer a Ubuntu a potenciales usuarios particulares y empresariales
  • abogar por el uso de software libre y formatos abiertos (usando a Ubuntu como plataforma), sobre todo en el sector público y en el sector educativo
