= Education =

Some high school.
I've been using Linux since 2002 , and actively involved in the Ubuntu Community since 2007. I work with Sugar Labs on their systems maintenance, and am currently an undergraduate at George Mason University.
Line 33: Line 17:
I started using Ubuntu on "edgy", and, being a Ubuntu newbie, felt a compulsive urge to upgrade to the then-highly-unstable "Feisty Faun" while it was still in alpha. Then, in another act of grand stupidity, I upgraded to Gutsy 3~ months before release. I currently I co-administer JeffreyElkner 's lab at Yorktown ( I am an underling of MatthewGallagher ). I started using Ubuntu since "edgy", and have tested all the betas of Ubuntu starting with Feisty. I was previously the administrator of an Edubuntu lab of more than 20 computers at my local high school.
Line 35: Line 19:
I also work on a python graphics API called GASP ( see http://edge.launchpad.net/gasp-code ) which I am working to package for Ubuntu (well, really watching MatthewGallagher). I am a Debian developer, and I maintain [[http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=Luke+Faraone|several packages]] there. I strive to ensure they are all work as expected in Ubuntu, and that bugs fixed in `unstable` are backported to Ubuntu releases. A list of my software uploads can be found [[https://launchpad.net/~lfaraone/+related-software|on Launchpad]].
