Applicant writes:
I'm Patrick Schoenfeld, from Moenchengladbach, Germany,
born on 17h february 1985. I grew up not so near from here,
in Idstein, near Frankfurt/Main, Germany. After I finished my school,
unfortunately not very succesful and therefore with
a bad degree, I at first had no great perspective and made some work
experiences which brought me quickly to an apprenticeship in a job that
has been my second choice, but who am I to argue with about four and a
half million unemployed people? However our relation ship held only a year,
because he was almost bankrupt when I started working there. That time I
decided to make a change, leave my parents and go into the world. I
searched for a job in Duesseldorf, my city of choice that time. Well, I
found another apprenticeship in Moenchengladbach which is quiet near to
Duesseldorf and so I moved there to start an apprenticeship as IT-specialist
(called Fachinformatiker in Germany).
Well, my first experience with Linux I already had before I started my first
apprentice ship. I had a subscription of PC Magazine and there were a lot
articles about it. As I found it very interested I started a folder, collecting
every of these articles. Then, finally, I saw a "linux special" from the chip magazine
in the kiosk, which was equipped with two CDs containing Debian Slink and
decided to buy it and give it a try. It was new, it was interesting, but I was
quiet unexperienced. After that I bought another special of that magazine which
contained potato. With every version of Debian I collected some more experience.
I even got a desktop working, although that was quiet hard with Debian at this
time. Then I had a quick affair with SuSE Linux 6.4, but that wasn't satisying
and I got back to Debian quickly. Later I had the first experience with servers
and started doing some server administration jobs next to school.
So, when I started my job in Moenchengladbach I had already collected some
knowledge of how things work and I wanted to learn more.
In the last quarter of 2006 I then decided that I want to give something back to
the community. It was good to have a OS like Debian with all that free software
and with all the freedoms and I wanted help making it even better as it already was.
So I decided to helpout with a package, that I was using in company, and that
were in a bad mood (smstools). I got the co-maintainer of it. Over the next
month I got more involved into some packages, taking over another bad maintained
package (mantis) after asking MIA team to orphan it. And so on. Currently I
(co-)maintain 9 packages in main. Recently I joined the devscripts team, after
providing some patches. I use Debian Sid on my desktop and laptop and file
every bug that I find and try to be as verbose and helpful as possible,
including providing patches if I can. I have prepared a wiki page on wiki.d.o
[1], which lists some of my patches.
So to my goals in the Debian project. Its not that I feel appointed for higher
levels, so my work will probably always be base work: Packaging, bring already
existing packages into a good shape and help here and there. Were "here and
there" includes to help others with contributing to Debian. It would really make
me lucky to help some non-DD contributors to get packages into Debian and
eventually become a DD, if I should become a DD.
