I have been using Ubuntu as the primary OS since around June 2008. Before that , I tried it but had a few hardware problems. Ubuntu is my first linux experience. And have been sticking with it without second thoughts.

I usually do artwork for apps or projects which are in need of artwork. Triage bug reports in launchpad. I'm not actually a programmer. [But i have submitted one minor patch Big Grin :) , which changes the default options in compiz for a papercut bug]

Testimonials

Vish has been an outstanding contributor to the artwork and papercuts team. He's very active and does great work. Offering Ubuntu membership to Vish is a no-brainer Smile :) kwwii

"No-brainer" is exactly the phrase that came to mind when discussing Vish's Ubuntu membership. Not only should Vish be made an Ubuntu member, we should clone him 100 times and make the clones members too! Contributors of Vish's caliber are extremely rare; he's an extremely talented artist, has great user experience understanding, and has a great curiosity for technical details as well, all of which make him completely well-rounded. djsiegel

Vish has been tireless in handling Papercuts and other design-related bug reports. He’s a quick learner and often provides useful design suggestions. — mpt

Vish is very active in the Bug Squad. Not only does he triage loads and loads of bugs, he also is there in IRC to provide help to new triagers,and is of great help in discussions. The fact that he has somehow found the time next to all this to contribute so much to Artwork is astonishing. - qense
