#format wiki #language en Physics student from Finland. == Contact information == * Email: heikki.mantysaari @ linux.fi * IRC: heikki @ Freenode, IRCNet and OFTC == Summary of contributions to Ubuntu == My main contributions have been in the localization field as a translator and an administrator of the Ubuntu Finnish translators and Launchpad Finnish translators teams. I am also active member in the Finnish LoCo team. In addition to Ubuntu I'm active writer and an administrator of http://linux.fi wiki. I also contribute to Debian and Ubuntu by maintaining the package [[http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/mozvoikko|mozvoikko]]. == Involvement == * Ubuntu Member since 2009-11-03 ([[http://pastebin.com/f12828f27|log]]) * Administrator and member of the [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-fi|Ubuntu Finnish Translators]] and [[https://launchpad.net/~lp-l10n-fi|Launchpad Finnish Translators]] teams * Maintainer of the package [[http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/mozvoikko|mozvoikko]] in Debian and Ubuntu (Finnish spell-checker extension for Mozilla products, [[http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=heikki.mantysaari@linux.fi|Debian qa page]]) * Active member in [[http://ubuntu-fi.org|Ubuntu Finland]] LoCo (blog, forum, IRC, events) * Member of the [[https://launchpad.net/~mozilla-extensions-dev|Mozilla Extensions Team]] * Administrator of http://linux.fi site (a Finnish wiki about Linux, [[http://linux.fi/wiki/Toiminnot:Muokkaukset/Heikki|my contribution]]) * Member of the [[https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers|Launchpad Beta Testers]] team See also my [[https://launchpad.net/~heikki-mantysaari|Launchpad homepage]] ([[https://launchpad.net/~heikki-mantysaari/+archive|PPA]], [[https://code.launchpad.net/~heikki-mantysaari|code]]) == Goals == As a translators team admin I'm trying to improve the communication between Ubuntu Finnish Translators and upstream translator teams. I'd also want to do more packaging work with Ubuntu and Debian and perhaps become a DD or MOTU someday. But in the near future I'll concentrate on the translations. I'll also keep working with linux.fi and I'd want to see it as a front page of Linux in Finland. == Cheers from others == Heikki is a reliable guy who's done a great job on the documentation (ubuntu-fi.org, linux.fi) and finnish translations, also maintaining the finnish spell-checker mozvoikko. He knows what he wants and then goes for it - and seems to get there very often :) I support his membership approval. -- [[LaunchpadHome:risto.kurppa]] <> Heikki has been a great co-administrator at Finnish Translators team, handling member applications more timely than I ever did ;) Also elsewhere everything he does is professional and often quite needed. Mozvoikko is a very valuable contribution, and it was contributed in the "right" way: Debian -> Ubuntu universe -> MIR -> main. Outside Ubuntu, the linux.fi he maintains is The Linux site in Finland, and together with Ubuntu Finland's site the most popular by far as well. He has done tremendous documentation / instructions work there in addition to administrating it. And indeed he has also contributed to ubuntu-fi's blog, forums, IRC planning and events as well as one of the most active people we have in Finland. -- [[LaunchpadHome:timo-jyrinki]] <> ---- CategoryHomepage
