About me
Hi everyone. I am Howard Chan from Hong Kong, a dedicated Ubuntu enthusiastic.
I actually was a Windows user till March 2012, when I decided that using Windows 8 won't do any good. Hence I allowed myself into the embrace of the Ubuntu community.
Professionally (not quite so)
I'm a Secondary 3 student, so don't expect too technical items from me. I do know a bit of Java (from Android development), C++, C and Visual Basic.
Internet Relay Chat
My registered IRC nickname is smartboyhw. I usually use IRC as my medium of commmunication with community members. I am usually present in the following channels:

QA Team
As a student I do want to help the Ubuntu community, so on June 2012 I joined the Ubuntu Community Quality Assurance Team. It was my perfect team since it doesn't require any programming and can still help Ubuntu in a very solid way.

smartboyhw got the right answer more quickly than I did. You should expect high quality work from this person! kanliot
smartboyhw is always interested in trying something new, and tries to help where he can. Seems to have picked up quite a few things about Ubuntu development. Selfgoing. Friendly communicator, and has good potential for software development and administration. - zequence
Outgoing and enthusiastic, Smartboyhw has been exceedingly helpful from the first day with Ubuntu Studio. While focusing mainly on testing, he has been always willing to help in whatever manner available. I expect continued and increasing value to Ubuntu from him, including for development. ScottLavender
smartboyhw has been a great addition to the QA/Testing team. He is active in all aspects of it and is shortly due to hold a classroom session on testing ISO's. I can heart-fully recommend him for Ubuntu membership and ask that you look favorably upon his application. phillw 14:02 26th Jan 2013
I had the pleasure to meet smartboyhw while working on Ubuntu Accomplishments. He keeps providing us with valuable feedback, helps us fix bugs, and contributes some code. The quality of his work is great, and I suspect it may be partially caused by his never-ending enthusiasm for contributing to Ubuntu. smartboyhw is one of those contributors who are certain to bring great values to Ubuntu, and therefore I can recommend him for Ubuntu membership.
