From Fedora Project Wiki
Scott Dowdle
- I've been using Linux since 1995, Red Hat Linux since 1996, and Fedora since Fedora Core 1 was released. I prefer Fedora for desktop usage and am currently running Fedora 10 at home and Fedora 9 at work. On servers I prefer RHEL or CentOS.
- I am very active in the OpenVZ Project[1] and maintain OS Templates for CentOS and Fedora (updated monthly) which can be found in the OpenVZ contrib area[2].
- I run the MontanaLinux.org[3] website which is a content hub for LUGs in the state of Montana (USA). So far there is the BozemanLUG (which I'm the leader of), HelenaLUG, BillingsLUG and MissoulaLUG.
Contact
- Email: mailto:dowdle@montanalinux.org
- IRC: I hang out on #ubuntu-montana, #openvz, #moodle, and #zimbra with the registered nick of dowdle. I visit the #fedora change sometimes but the traffic on that channel so so heavy it is hard for me to keep up with so I don't hang out there all of the time.
Activities within Fedora
- I am new to the project and just dipping my toe in the water at the moment although I have been promoting Red Hat and Fedora for many years by writing articles and reviews on my website and by burning CDs and DVDs given away at LUG meetings.
- At some point in the future, I want to see if I can get the Fedora Project interested in making OpenVZ a stock part of the distro.
