[[File:Immagine.jpg|frame|Gabri]] Benvenuto a chiunque si trovasse a leggere queste note,
il mio nick, strettamente legato alla comunità italiana di Fedora [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ FedoraOnLine], è mailga ma in realtà mi chiamo ''''' Gabriele Trombini'''''.
Già verso la fine del secolo scorso (fa effetto detto così, parlando degli anni tra il 1998 ed il 2000, eh!!) sono stato affascinato da quella che allora era veramente una novità: GNU/Linux.
Tuttavia il mio interesse non fu mai supportato dal successo nell'installazione di una qualsiasi distribuzione.
Fu solo nell'anno successivo che, grazie al supporto di un mio caro amico, riprovai in maniera più convinta l'installazione e l'utilizzo; la scelta, quindi, cadde su una Red Hat.
Da allora mi sono dedicato sempre più al mondo Linux e, quando Fedora Core ha visto la luce, ho praticamente fatto la mia scelta di fedeltà al Fedora Project.
Dal 2006 collaboro con FedoraOnLine e, nel tempo, i frutti anche del mio lavoro di promulgazione e supporto hanno creato la base per una crescita costante della comunità italiana.
===Dati Anagrafici===
Nato a Milano nel lontano (per molti) Agosto del 1966, ma trasferitomi una decina di anni fa in Brianza nella provincia di Lecco.
Sono sposato ed ho due bambini non ancora in età di utilizzo del personal computer.
===Attività lavorativa===
Attualmente sono uno dei titolari di una società privata e mi occupo della gestione aziendale a livello amministrativo, di bilanci, di credito e di situazioni finanziarie.
Sono esperto in controllo di gestione e previsioni economiche, fiscali e bancarie.
La società è di tipo commerciale nel settore di vendita all'ingrosso di apparecchi per il condizionamento, ventilazione e trattamento dell'aria.
===Interessi===
Per forza di cose, malgrado in passato lo sport occupasse gran parte del mio tempo libero, i bambini, l'attività familiare ed il lavoro, assorbono quasi per intero la mia giornata, pertanto i miei interessi sono circoscritti al mondo Fedora ed al progetto del forum [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ FedoraOnLine], allo studio delle release ed a quanto gira intorno al [https://fedoraproject.org/| Progetto Fedora].
===Attività Fedora===
===== Fino ad oggi =====
Come detto, a partire dal 2006 collaboro con la [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ Comunità Italiana] di Fedora ed insieme al Webmaster del sito ([https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Robyduck Robyduck]) ed a ottimi colleghi ([https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Sagitter Trpost], [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Marionline Marios], Virus) promuoviamo da parecchio tempo sia il sistema operativo Fedora che i [https://fedoraproject.org/it/about-fedora valori] di cui è portavoce nel mondo.

Con il mio amico Robyduck, qualche anno fa, abbiamo anche pensato di redigere e distribuire un libro per chi voleva avvicinarsi a Fedora, riscuotendo qualche successo e, fortunatamente, poche critiche.
In effetti siamo molto soddisfatti del lavoro svolto, fornendo agli utenti interessati uno strumento con il quale affrontare la prima istallazione di Fedora (per alcuni versi ancora attuale) e, nel contempo, creare interesse intorno al nostro sistema operativo di riferimento trattando argomenti anche più approfonditi rispetto alla preparazione di chi si avvicina per la prima volta ai sistemi Linux
Gli argomenti trattati andavano dall'installazione alla configurazione spiegando anche la struttura del filesystem, la configurazione di Grub, dei servizi fino ad arrivare ad una panoramica sulla ricompilazione del kernel.
L'obiettivo principale del forum è netta e precisa, cioè avvicinare quanti più utenti possibile al mondo Fedora ed al suo progetto.
Detto questo la mia attività di collaborazione ricopre parecchi aspetti ed i principali sono quelli di supporto tecnico agli utenti in difficoltà, pubblicazioni di guide in italiano e avvicinare il più possibile gli utilizzatori indecisi.
===== Nel Futuro =====
Malgrado il poco tempo libero a mia disposizione, ho ancora diversi progetti che riguardano Fedora in Italia:
{{admon/tip|| prima di tutto, con lo staff, abbiamo in mente di ampliare il forum [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ FedoraOnLine] per poter offrire un servizio più completo agli utenti che già ne fruiscono e soprattutto per dare uno stimolo all'avvicinamento di coloro che ancora non conoscono il nostro sistema operativo}}
{{admon/tip|| creare degli strumenti '''liberamente scaricabili''' dove reperire informazioni e notizie su Fedora e sul Fedora Project;}}
{{admon/tip|| promuovere eventi e contribuire con assistenza remota ad eventi già organizzati;}}
{{admon/tip|| farmi portavoce nei confronti di coloro che ancora non hanno preso in considerazione il software libero e non hanno ancora abbracciato la filosofia open source;}}
{{admon/tip|| esaudire il mio desiderio e la mia voglia di [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join/it contribuire al progetto fedora] trovando la collocazione ottimale all'interno delle categorie a disposizione}}.
As mentioned above, since 2006 I collaborate with the [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ Italian Community] of Fedora and, with the site Webmaster ([https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Robyduck Robyduck]) and the excellent collaborators [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Sagitter Trpost], [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Marionline Marios], Virus), together we promote both the Fedora operating system and the [https://fedoraproject.org/en/about-fedora values] in which it believes.[[File:Libro_copertina.jpg | right | 80px | caption | copertina]]

* With my friend Robyduck, a few years ago, we also decided to write and distribute a book for those who wanted to become Fedora users, fortunately enjoying a little success. In fact we are very satisfied about the work; we provided to the affected users a tool (in some ways still current) to make easier the first installation of Fedora and, at the same time, create interest around our operating system, explaining topics deeply, with respect to the preparation of those who approached for the first time to Linux. The topics were related to the installation and first configuration, to the filesystem structure, to the Grub configuration, to the services and, also, to an overview of the kernel build.

* In March 2012, as editor, I published the web magazine [http://doc.fedoraonline.it/Folio Folio], free and freely downloadable from the site of the [http://it.fedoracommunity.org/ Italian Community]. It contains articles and interviews with members of the Fedora Project and other contributors. The goal is to inform the users about the activities of the Fedora Project, explaining deatures and deepen as much as possible into the operating system. The first beat was successful, so I think we can continue with satisfaction.

I believe that the event can actively contribute to the growth and spread of Fedora in Italy. With other Ambassador ([[User:Giallu|Gianluca Sforna]] and [[User:Marionline|Mario Santagiulana]]) and with the help of other friends ([[User:Robyduck|Robert Mayr]] and [[User:Antowen|Antonio Gemelli]]) we organized a presentation of Fedora 17 "Beefy Miracle" and a contest to test the knowledge of the attendees about the system and its history, also including practical demonstrations. It was a national event open to all Italian users.

* In October 2012, I co-organized and participated at the event [[FAD_LinuxDayMi_2012|FAD Milan 2012]] held in Milan, in conjunction with the Italian Linux Day. We prepared speeches about the activities into the Project together with ambassadors ([[User:Giallu|Gianluca Sforna]], [[User:Marionline|Mario Santagiulana]], [[User:Robyduck|Robert Mayr]] and [[User:Deneb|Marina Latini]]), other contributors ([[User:Averi|Andrea Veri]], Samuel Iuri (Design Team)) and volunteers (Federico Vaga and Massimilano Bugni). We had also one pratical session about packaging.

my nickname, related to the Italian Fedora community FedoraOnLine, is mailga but my real name is Gabriele Trombini.
Already at the end of nineties, I was fascinated by GNU/Linux but my interest has never been supported by the successful installation of any kind of distribution.
It was only in the following year, with the support of a dear friend, that, more convinced, I tried again the installation and the utilization; so the choice fell on the Red Hat distribution.
Since that time I have dedicated much time to the Linux world and, when Fedora has seen the light, I made my choice of loyalty to the Fedora Project.
Since 2006 I collaborate with FedoraOnLine and, over time, the incessant expansion of the Italian community is also due to my support, work and promulgation.
Personal details
I was born in Milan (Italy) a long time ago (for many people), in the August of 1966, but I moved ten years ago in the countryside near Lecco, in Brianza.
I am married and I have two children that are not old enough to use the personal computer.
Employment
I'm one of the owners of a private company and I'm the administrative responsible of the business management, budgets, credits and financials.
I am an expert in management control, in economic forecasts and in fiscal and banking solutions.
The company is in the commercial sector of wholesale of equipment for air conditioning, ventilation and air treatment.
Interests
Sport occupied most of my free time in the past, but now my family, children and my job have become more important, so actually my interests are confined to the world of Fedora, to the FedoraOnLine forum, to the study of next releases and to the things around the Fedora Project.
Fedora Activities
Until now
As mentioned above, since 2006 I collaborate with the Italian Community of Fedora and, with the site Webmaster (Robyduck) and the excellent collaborators Marios, Virus), together we promote both the Fedora operating system and the values in which it believes. The goal of the forum is clear and precise, in other words we want bring more users as possible in the world of Fedora Project. My work in the forum covers many aspects, the main are giving technical support to the members, writing howtos in italian and involving much as possible the undecided users.

In the future
Although I don't have much free time, I have many projects to be implemented for the Italian users:
first of all, with the staff, we plan to expand the forum FedoraOnLine to offer to users a more complete service;
creating free contents to find information and news about Fedora and the Fedora Project;
promoting events and remote assistance;
promoting free software and the open source philosophy;
