| First >>> I am a Computer engineer and, I work by my self like FOSS consultant in San Salvador, Capital of El Salvador in Central America. My beginning with GNU/Linux was on 1998 with Mandrake 7.1 I used this one for 12 moths or less. In my job we configured a GNU/Linux Servers with Redhat, but as I was learning GNU/Linux my boss said “please install Mandrake first on your computer”. So i used to have Mandrake in my computer, with the time I changed because I thought I learned a lot. To be honest I would like to say that in the past, I didn't liked Gnome, but sudenly I said: “OK, if I need to work every day with Redhat, why don't I use it on my pc?” The answer came by itself in the future, Fedora 1.0 arrived, and I downloaded the CDs, and installed it on my pc, since this day my life would turned blue, even when I had several “winmodem” hardware problems, and others... But I used to work with Redhat every day while it was “free” for free.... When Fedora was born I decided to migrate to Fedora, and I used it on all the servers that I have in charge of. Then I needed to taste other distros: “Fedora and in some cases Redhat for servers”,”Suse and Mandrake for end users” while I explored “Ubuntu for knowledge” and “debian to develop software with perl and Mysql”. Anyway in the end I am blue.
| Features >>> Things always change, actually Fedora is my main OS ever since. : )p I had the opportunity to teach “Linux Server Administration for advanced users” based on Fedora 4 to 6. (3 times). Then for job reasons I had to work with Ubuntu 7.04, 8.04.1, 8.04.2 for 6 moths, developing software and installing 5 LTSP centers for “AECID and Ministerio de Salud de El Salvador, Region Occidental de Salud”, but in the end of this project I came back to the roots, and the blue took my soul again. So i am here trying to be a new Fedora Ambassador in El Salvador. I have a long journey ahead of me. One of the most important things is to build a Fedora community called “Fedora-sv” with my friend Yn1v from Nicaragua and Morpheusv Salvadorean Ambassador, and with my friends of LINUX-UDB.
| Freedom & Friends>>> At the same time I am working with Don Bosco University (Soyapango, El Salvador), making a free manuals of: Openoffice.org, Mozilla Thunderbird and basic concepts of Debian, and working as a trainer too. When I have the opportunity I always talk about Free Software and GNU/Linux, and some of my friends take the challenge. I am in my life predicating the Philosophy of Free Software.
