Greetings everyone, My name is Jacques Boulet. I am currently earning an Associates of Applied Science in Computer Information Systems here in the U.S. I have approximately one more year before I earn my degree and I would like to find something to help me solidify the skills I have already learned. I would also like the opportunity to learn other skills that I might not be able learn to in a school environment. Hopefully something real world that I can use when I find a good career. I would place my computer skill in the intermediate level. I know enough to do minor code hacks, write very simple things in Java, configure and operate servers, etc. Though I am no system admin capable of running and trouble shooting networks for major corporations, or leading a software development project. I have a good, solid understanding of how computer work, and I am learning more everyday. Furthermore, I am not new to Linux. I have been using it on and off since 1997 or 1998. The first distribution I used was SuSE 5.2 and it had KDE 1.0 beta on it. I started using Fedora around F11 and have really fallen in love with it. I solely run Linux now and have for about the past four years. Again, I am not capable of being a lead Unix/Linux system admin for some big corporation, but I am an avid user of Linux and I do posses a sound understanding of it. I have also done work, briefly, on the Mephisto Backup Project. I was in a beginning programming class and knew the founder of that project. I only helped for about a month before I began to get overwhelmed with school and work. SourceForge project page for Mephisto: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mephistobackup/ Right off the top of my head the most beneficial skill that I posses for the Documentation project is my use of OOo and MS Word over the past year with school. I Think I have written enough reports to get enough experience with those two office suites that I am confident I can turn out some decent documents. What I believe would make me a good match for this project is that I really want to work on my writing skills. I know that English and grammar are weak points for me and I can't think of a better way to improve than to write documentation with the whole world as your editor. :) Anyway, I look forward to learning more, meeting you guys and making some new friends.
