I, Graham Inggs, apply for MOTU.

Who I am

I'm a sysadmin for the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment at the University of Cape Town.

My Ubuntu story

I've been using Ubuntu as my primary desktop operating system since Gutsy Gibbon. I started contributing to Ubuntu in late 2012 fixing bugs in packages we use at our university; cntlm, (open)motif and CUDA.

My involvement

Packaging, SRUs, syncs, merges and bug triaging.

Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of

• List of packages maintained and co-maintained by me in Debian

• List of uploads sponsored for me in Ubuntu

Areas of work

I try to keep in contact with the upstream developers of the packages I maintain.

Things I could do better

I would like to be able to do more in bug control; such as nominating for series and setting the importance.

Plans for the future

General

I will be applying for Debian Maintainer soon, and if successful, will apply for Debian Developer within the next 6 months.

What I like least in Ubuntu

Please describe what you like least in Ubuntu and what thoughts do you have about fixing it.
