| = Me & Linux =
| |
| | |
| Although I'm still at school, I've been using Linux for quite a while now - I first started using it way back in 2005, when I finally decided to give MS the boot. I'd finally become tired of paying for an OS, while there were perfectly good ones (and even better ones!) available on the internet.
| |
| | |
| I have a passion to share Linux, and hopefully I can benefit a lot of people!
| |
| | |

| = Activities within Fedora =
| |
| | |
| == Free Media contributor since 2009! ==
| |
| I love being part of the FreeMedia group, as it lets me give something back to the world :)
| |
| | |
| I don't have extreme amounts of money that I can give, but by sending a couple of 25p discs every month, I know someone else has experienced linux, and that's all good!
| |
| | |
| If you are interested in seeing where I send my DVDs to, have a look at [[User:Ascenseur/FreeMedia|My FreeMedia Page]].
| |
| | |
| == Promoting Fedora ==
| |
| I aim to promote Fedora (but also other Linux distros) to the wide community in which I live in. This is why I have set up my own LUG ''(Linux User Group)'', as I believe that there is a lot I can help others learn, and Fedora is a part of it!
| |
| | |
| If you're interested in my LUG, have a look at [http://bedslug.co.cc bedslug.co.cc]
| |
| | |
| == Designing FreeMedia resources ==
| |
| I have created a FreeMedia mailer to use when sending DVDs abroad, so that it gets there safely whilst being '''extremely''' economical on postage costs.
| |
| | |
| The latest version of it, which includes a customs label pre-inserted, is available on my Fedora People account at [http://ascenseur.fedorapople.org/fedora_mailer_new.otg ascenseur.fedorapeople.org/fedora_mailer_new.otg]
| |
| | |
| == Fedora Ambassadors ==
| |
| I applied to become a Fedora Ambassador on the 17th of February 2010 - My application is still pending!
| |
| | |
| If you want to track my progress in the Ambassador application, click [[User:Ascenseur/AmbassadorApplication|here]]
| |
| | |
| == Creating a UK EventBox ==
| |
| In collaboration with [[User:Paulmellors|MooDoo]], I have started planning a UK EventBox.
| |
| | |
