About me

My name is Seif Lotfy and I'm from Cairo/Egypt. I am 23 and studying Computational Engineering at TU-Darmstadt (Germany). I have been using Ubuntu since October 2004 when it was released. (I also ordered some CDs to test if I would actually get them). I am really into robots too and i have been participating with the GermanTeam at the RoboCup since 2006.

Projects

I am trying to start a project called Ubuntu GUI Team. My intention is to develop GUIs for text command line/terminal based applications. If interested please contact me. I am also working on the Gimmie Panel (that is how I learned python) and finally got an svn account WOHOOOOOOOOOO !!! Starting February 2008 I am a co-founder and member of the SuperDataDaemonThing Development Team ["http://live.gnome.org/SuperDataDaemonThing"], a collaboration between various open source developers to provide a common data access layer for the free desktop.
