Hello everyone,
I've decided to join the package maintainers and I would like to introduce myself.
I have been a linux user since 2001 and a Red Hat/Fedora user since 2003. My main systems run on Fedora (of course) and Gentoo. I have a background in chemistry, particularly molecular modeling and for the past decade I have been working as a "general purpose IT guy" and part-time web-developer. I build systems, I design and deploy SOHO networks, I do some light pen-testing and provide tech support. I have experience coding in Fortran, Perl, PHP, Python, shell scripts, (X)HTML/CSS, I have worked with several CMSs -though in the past few years mostly with Joomla- and I have built some customized versions of embedded distros such as OpenWRT and other device-related software. During the past decade I have done alpha/beta/QA testing for a number of projects (most of them FLOSS) and I have provided translations and bug reports for others.
I would like to give back something more than bug reports and translations and also improve my coding skills along the way. I have a couple of programs that I would like to maintain, but for the moment there remains an issue with their licenses.
There is also a patched version of libatasmart, that takes care of an issue with several older Western Digital hard drives, that is awaiting review (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1157150) and I would really appreciate it if someone could take the time to look into that.
