I have run Linux and UNIX systems at home and at work for decades* and have been an Ubuntu user and hacker since Feisty.
* SCO Xenix '286 came on about twenty 5.25" floppies, back in those days!

Ubuntu contributions

• I joined Canonical and the Ubuntu Kernel Team in March 2010.

• I am an admin and active member of the ubuntu-hams and ubuntu-hams-devel teams. My goal is to address every open ham radio bug in Ubuntu.

• I am a member of the ubuntu-bugcontrol team and the MOTU Science team.

• I have been working the Lucid FTBFS list regularly since late 2009, learning the Ubuntu dev procedures and fixing broken packages.

Endorsements of my work

• Steve Conklin's endorsement of my application to the ubuntu-bugcontrol team

  • I have worked with Kamal recently on several bugs and packaging changes, and found him to be very productive and easy to work with. I recommend him for acceptance by the bugcontrol team. Steve Conklin

• Emmet Hikory's endorsement of my application to the ubuntu-bugcontrol team

  • I'm familiar with Kamal's work in the development arena, and am very glad to see the same attention to detail and rich investigation brought to bug triage. [Kamal's] handling of many of these bugs demonstrates a care often missed: rather than looking for a quick fix, the state of the packages have been investigated upstream and in Debian, and when bugs are discovered to be fixed, detailed information about when and how they were fixed has been indicated. I unreservedly endorse [Kamal's application to ubuntu-bugcontrol]. Emmet HIKORY

• Scott Howard's endorsement of my application to the ubuntu-bugcontrol team

  • I've been seeing Kamal's work first hand lately, he's been a great help! +1 from me. Scott Howard
