I recommend to accept Simon Kainz as a Debian Developer. 1. Identification & Account Data -------------------------------- First name: Simon Middle name: - Last name: Kainz Key fingerprint: ED98D2D344641A6859A0864F1CB4F0F78DECAFE9 Account: skainz 2. Background ------------- I first came in contact with Linux about 2008, where i started to work at the Department of Computing at Graz University of Technology. I did this besides finishing my Master Thesis. My coworker taught me all the "secrets" i needed to know about system administration, especially focused on cluster computing (HPC). Currenty we run 6 HPC system of different sizes as well as some LAMP servers. I also wrote some monitoring scripts and run a Nagios instance. As my coworker is an active DD (and 100 % blind), i accompanied him to 3 DebConfs (DC9 in Caceres, DC11 in Banja Luka, DC12 in Managua) and was really impressed by the nice, friendly community. In June 2012 i announced duck, the _D_ebian _U_RL _C_hec_k_er [1], and after some suggestions from Paul Wise, i also packaged duck [2]. I also packaged rtax [3], which was needed for some of my cluster users. My primary areas of interest within Debian is QA work as well as MIA and documentation/translation work. I know that there are so many skilled people within Debian, working hard on packaging and programming. I want to give back some of the great work (which i basically owe my job), taking care of things i know programmers usually don't handle with highest priority, like QA work, documentation and eventually translation. I think, there are still some aspects of Debian which would need some work concerning this areas, and by working on those tasks, i think i probably can help in making Debian even better. -- Andrea Colangelo | http://andreacolangelo.com Head of Content Strategy, Cloud Academy Inc. | http://cloudacademy.com Debian Developer <warp10@debian.org> | Ubuntu Developer <warp10@ubuntu.com>
