Who I am

I am a Debian developer since 2017-05-07. I maintained some Debian packages. I was an official GNOME Foundation Member from 2017-06-05 to 2019-06-04. I am a Canonical employee. I works for OEM Enablement under Devices Enablement.

My Ubuntu story

As a community member, I created and maintained Ubuntu Traditional Chinese Group on Facebook and supported Ubuntu Taiwan Community for many years. As a Canonical employee, I physically joined UDS-{M,N,O,P}. I preloaded the customized Ubuntu systems in many kinds of x86 PCs for ASUS, Dell, ECS, HP and Lenovo.

My involvement

I also have some contributions directly in upstream projects.

Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of

Areas of work

My daily work in Canonical is mainly for Ubuntu OEM images, so I work on the installer, related components and the image build system, such as debian-installer, ubiquity, live-build and dell-recovery. But except Ubuntu OEM images, I also work for many kinds of issues reported by Canonical OEM QA and the OEM/ODM, such as Linux kernel, X Window system, Freedesktop components, GNOME components, EDID, UEFI, BIOS/EC, WiFi/Bluetooth devices, WWAN devices, touchpad devices, touchscreen devices, hotkeys, USB docking stations and Energy Star.

Things I could do better

I hope I can learn more knowledge about the package uploading process and convention in Ubuntu, and then I would like to apply to become an Ubuntu MOTU developer.

Plans for the future

General

There are many issues from Ubuntu OEM projects but there are no enough MOTU developers able to deal with them directly. I wish I can become a MOTU developer to deal with those issues directly.

Endorsements

Daniel Holbach (dholbach)

As a sponsor, just copy the template below, fill it out and add it to this section. I really enjoy working with Shih-Yuan. He responds quickly, he pays attention to details is happy to work with Debian and upstreams, and has been contributing to Debian for years.. He knows his way around and it always happy to help others. I fully endorse him as a MOTU. -- dholbach 2016-03-03 14:01:45

Alberto Milone (tseliot)

I have worked with Shih-Yuan for years now, and he has proved to be pretty knowledgeable and versatile in his approach. He is also very responsive and easy to work with. As a Core developer, I fully endorse him as a MOTU. -- albertomilone 2016-03-04 20:45:47

I reviewed and sponsored several SRUs for Shih-Yuan. He's responsive to questions/requests for changes and doing good work. I recommend him for MOTU

Mario Limonciello (superm1)

I've worked with 4$ on various OEM projects over the years. He's very skilled at finding his way around packages across foundations and coming up with proper fixes. He strives to work within process and submit them as SRU's rather than taking the bandaid approach in the OEM builds. He's collaborated with me on dell-recovery for a long time and I would love to see him working on other packages in Universe as a MOTU.
