About Me

I've been using Linux since 1998, starting with Red Hat. I quickly moved to Debian for a long time, then to Ubuntu during the WartyWarthog release. My local LUG is the Townsville Linux Users Group, for which I administer both the website and Freenode irc channel (#tlug) voluntary. I have a blog at [http://linuxguy.bur.st/ http://linuxguy.bur.st/] and I'm also a member of the following projects and organisations:

I am no longer a member of the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam Australian LoCo team] due to reasons given [http://linuxguy.bur.st/?p=7 here on my blog].

How Have I Contributed to Ubuntu?

I am the primary author of the Ubuntu Starter Guide that was released with BreezyBadger and available via Yelp in every Ubuntu BreezyBadger installation. Based on ubuntuguide.org, the [http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/index.html Ubuntu Starter Guide] aims to address several key criticisms whist being technically correct and open to the Ubuntu community. I also help maintain other documents in the DocumentationTeam subversion repository and help out new contributors to Ubuntu documentation.

For DapperDrake I did most of the initial ground work and organisation of the [http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html Ubuntu Desktop Guide], although time restraints recently due to the birth of my daughter has held me back from contributing further.

I also help out the WikiTeam by writing new guides or editing things I think need changing on the Ubuntu wiki. Some examples of my wiki-related work where I have contributed significantly include:

Other non-documentation things I have contributed to the Ubuntu community include:
