I also do some research and publish papers in the areas of:

Why Fedora?
I'm a big fan of the Fedora project, I got my start in the Unix/Linux world using FreeBSD in the late 90's and then progressed on to Fedora Core when I began developing software and hardware for remote environmental data collection systems and never looked back. Today I work in the world of large clusters which typically run some form of RHEL (typically centOS).
