Self Introduction: Jeroen 'kanarip' van Meeuwen

Hi to everyone on the list!

So, here's my self introduction. My name is Jeroen van
Meeuwen, age
23, and I live in a little city near Utrecht, in The
Netherlands.

During the day I am a System Engineer and I'm currently
employed as
Windows Engineer for a corporate organization in logistics.
I also
work as an Instructor in Linux at my consultancy agency and
I'm
planning to enroll the rapid RHCE course track around March
2007.

I'm currently contributing to the Fedora Unity project,
mainly because
I think it progresses in areas that are not addressed by any
other
Fedora Project, such as the Installation Media Re-Spins, the
Live-Spins, documentation on common issues such as the
installation of
NTFS read/write, nVidia drivers, and much more things that
the
community wants. I find it a very good example of how (part
of) the
community gets things done that the community wants.

A friend of mine brought my attention to Fedora Legacy. Of
course I
had heard of it, I've read the articles about how some
people suspect
it to fail, but he made me realize that without Fedora
Legacy, as
the life-cycle of a 'supported' Fedora Core version is
'only' one
year, is way too important to be as inactive as it currently
is... I
hope that with my future contributions, and the
contributions from
others, we can lift this project (close) to it's full
potential and
make people realize that the actual lifecycle of a Fedora
Core release
is at least two years. I think this often is one of the
aspects that
makes people decide to use a distribution other then Fedora,
and I
dislike that. So, I'm gonna try and do something about it.

Some of you (specifically if you are on IRC), know me as
kanarip. Feel
free to contact me about anything!

Kind regards,

Jeroen van Meeuwen

Hi Jeroen. We'll definitely appreciate the help. I suppose
the most useful
thing to do right now is to look in bugzilla or at Pekka's
buglist at
<http://
www.netcore.fi/pekkas/buglist.html> and start poking
at things.


Hopefully, we'll have some better infrastructure in place
soon.
