Shiraz MALIK
I am a Linux enthusiast and I am working on Linux for almost 10 years. I started off with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2 and then moved on to Fedora later on.
I am basically a networking professional working at HP Networking for 5 years and I really love my job. I am working a 3rd level engineer and I am part of the global team looking after all the HP Networking (ProCurve, H3C, 3Com) customers. I think Linux go really well with Networking and without Linux, I cannot imagine doing my job properly. Since it is also my passion to work on Linux, I enjoy it even more.
I am very passionate about Linux and I truly believe that this is one of the best things happened to the mankind. I love reading / listening anything about Linux and any chance where I could jump on to a webcast to listen to some Linux folk or grab a magazine to read about some new Linux apps, I don't miss it. I am huge fan of Linus and I follow his blog religiously.

Activities within Fedora
- I am big time supporter of Linux and though I run almost all major distributions in my virtualbox, my host is always Fedora. I started my Linux life in 2003 with RHEL2 and then moved to Fedora when "moonshine" was released.
- I love creating some how-to's for people who need help with Linux and I really enjoy doing that. I also wrote an article on Linux.com on how to install Linksys USB wireless adaptor on RHEL5.
- I am preacher of Fedora and in my work environment, I am well known Fedora user.
- I log quite a few bugzilla reports and I don't miss a chance to report any bug I find on my Fedora. I work actively with the developer till the issue is resolved. It really gives me a feeling of contribution towards building a stable Fedora.
- I am part of some Fedora mailing-lists to keep myself up-to-date on the current happenings.
- My laptop has a big Fedora sticker on the back of the lid and I make sure I show it off whenever I am in public. (sounds stupid but if you feel the about Linux as I do, you'll know what I am talking about :-))
