Hi! I'm happy that I have a chance to show you, who I am, what I am doing :) . *** About me *** I was interested on openSUSE since 10.1 (it was SuSE, really). I had no luck and I didn't had to use it - no sound = mv SuSE /dev/null. After changing hardware, I really forgot about SuSE. Oops, should I tell this? With months after openSUSE 10.3 release, I migrated and observer positive changes in the project. When 11.0 came, I was excited, how many things you did fixed. That was a lot of happyness. My adventure at bugzillas began when I was a Fedora packager - I learned many things and I use them now, filing many bugs in openSUSE, trying to help, as much I can, the developers. I'm not afraid of downloading from SVN, CVS, BZR and GIT. Compiling and debugging also is nothing new for me. I'm maintaining 8 packages @ home:liviopl project @ oSB and also gnome-do @ GNOME:Community (not alone - with few another members). When I see - I'm correcting typos and misspellings @ openSUSE Wiki in both English and Polish. It seems, that recently I became openSUSE maintainer @ Polish Wikipedia - did much there. *** What is my manifesto/program? *** I would like to be able to propose more, sometimes revolutional, functionality and features and to be heard. I would like to have voice in some important votings 'bout openSUSE. My plan is to rule the world with open source software and it's quality and community. It sounds funny, but it isn't. Open source software is the feature of computer software and needs to gain more features, more "niceness", strong and smart community. Really. You may (dis)agree with me, but that's what communities must do - help themselves create high quality usable software, which fullfills needs of people. There are many things to do and to change. Developers sometimes need someone which can show them, what direction to go. I would like to be one of them. That's not so short... So I wish you good lecture :P . -- Jakub 'Livio' Rusinek http://liviopl.jogger.pl/
