About Me

Hi!

I am Carlo Lobrano, a Software Engineer from Italy. I am an Ubuntu user since 2007, when I almost bricked my first notebook during the installation, and a community contributor since 2015 with a patch on Snappy. Since then, I kept contributing to Ubuntu and the Open Source world in different projects.

Contributions

• The project to which I contributed the most is surely Yaru. I have been involved since the beginning in 2017, with development (here when the project was called Communitheme), bug triaging and design/discussion on the Community HUB.

• I am responsibile for the promotion of the snap package from the edge to the stable channel, which I did weekly for the first 5 months, until the first official release of the theme in Ubuntu 18.10. Later on the releases came out about once a month.

• I had a little part in the ubuntu-themes and snapcraft with some patches.

• Finally, here are some small and less small fixes on GNOME projects Calendar, Nautilus and Desktop-Icon

Future Goals

• Keep working on Yaru,

• Contribute also to some new project, closer to my experience as software developer (I am a fake designer ),

• Take personal contact with the people of this Community, which I only know through the Internet at the moment.

Testimonials

I will be very grateful to anyone who wants to support me to get the Ubuntu membership leaving some lines below. Thanks a lot!

Carlo has been a pillar in the new ubuntu theme. Without him, we would surely not have been able to deliver such a stunning new Yaru design, which gives a fresh an unique feeling to the ubuntu desktop image since 18.10. He clearly succeeded in the original Yaru project: having a theme lead by the entire community, and this is in great part thanks to him. In addition to this, he has always been a very great person to communicate and work with.

I strongly support him in becoming an ubuntu member, this is fully deserved. Great work Carlo and keep it up!
