I'm a Debian and Ubuntu maintainer.
In Debian, I am responsible for
- gnutls, gcrypt, gnupg2, and some related packages
- festival (speech synthesizer)
- NTP (co-maintainer, though I do most of the work)
- Python docutils
- some other assorted packages
I'm able to debug Linux kernel drivers, network stuff, telephony / GSM / ISDN stuff, and whatever else people throw at me. Within limits.
I'm a system/Linux/networking/security consultant. People generally like the way I work. Please ask privately for details.
What I'm doing for Ubuntu:
- Right now, other commitments mean that I can only do paid consulting.
in the past,
I managed the LoCoTeamList and the web server for some of the LoCoTeams.
I enhanced the KeyboardLayoutSelector I wrote for Hoary.
- I was responsible for a couple of Debian packages.
I worked on accessibility. There's this neat program, Dasher, which allows people to basically surf through a list of letters towards whatever they want to write. This is an order of magnitude faster than any other text input method (except for keyboards of course) I've seen, and it wants better integration with Gnome. Among other things.
I also did a bit of translating to German, and helped organize the German translation effort. See, for instance, the GermanWebsiteUbuntu page.
