zaafouri is an active member in our community and he is a member in the Management Committee. He proposed, organized and financed some of our events and he participated in many events. He's one of the rare professionnel Linux people I know who participate actively in the community. I'm very happy to see him with us in our community and I'm sure that he will be a good ubuntu member.
