Hello! I am Doran L. Barton and am known by some online as 'fozz' or 'fozzmoo'. I live in Riverton, UT (USA) which is a suburb of Salt Lake City. I am a graduate of Utah State University with a BS degree in Computer Science and am currently employed by a small Salt Lake City business named KnowledgeBlue where I hold the title of Chief Architect and Director of Technology. Prior to this, I ran a small consultancy specializing in Linux-based solutions for businesses. As a matter of background and history, I began using open source software in the early 1990s while I was an off and on student. I began teaching Unix Administration courses full-time in 1992 and continued to teach part-time or on a contract basis when I returned to my studies. I first used Red Hat Linux in 1995 and continued using it as a server and then as my primary desktop and transitioned into Fedora when the Fedora project was created. My technical background is as a developer and systems administrator. My core competency as a programmer lies in Perl but I have a significant amount of exposure to Java, C, C++, PHP, and, of course, the Unix shell. As a systems administrator, I've gotten my hands dirty with Linux-HA, Sendmail, PostgreSQL, Apache, Tomcat, JBoss, MySQL, Bind, and OpenLDAP. As a user, I primarily use KDE and XFCE. I used to use Gnome and Afterstep, but along the way switched away. I've written a number of Fedora or open source-related articles which have been posted on my personal website <http://www.fozzilinymoo.org/> or on my blog <http://www.fozzilinymoo.org/Fozzolog/>. My technical writing skill is very good, I think. My "computer" skills are off the charts. I am very good at raw HTML and CSS. I'm not a Javascript or Ajax wizard, but would like to be. Other skills... I do a lot of video editing as a hobby. It's the one thing that keeps Windows on one computer in my office. I met our fearless leader at the Utah Open Source Conference this last weekend and hereby answer his challenge to (finally) get involved as a contributor. I look forward to working with you all.
