I work for a Linux Consulting firm doing systems engineering and coursework writing for our training facility as well as training customers. I wish to give back to the community that basically feeds my family. I thought about becoming a Debian developer, but they are flooded with people as it is, and are in no short need of help. I have heard that the LDP is always in need of people, so I humbly offer my services. I can do anything you need, and am a very good technical writer. I used to work for Tucows.com and wrote a weekly article for Tucows Linux and Tucows BSD (before they started writing bad things about the community). |

I would like to volunteer to assist in some manner the LDP. I am not sure in what capacity I would best be suited to help. In many ares my knowledge is incomplete and I do not feel comfortable in taking ownership of a How-To or Guide as of yet. My skills are of course tied to my education and experience and so I will briefly sum them here. I have been running Slackware Linux for a little over 2 years. I have two machines connected to a hub and a dial-up internet connection at present. A P133 serves as a firewall/gw and is currently using kernel 2.2.19. The other box is a dual boot Linux/Win98 box current kernel is 2.4.3. On the latter I use XFree4. I have built my own kernels from the beginning. (Though not all of them worked.) 8( The first was 2.0.34 I have over 2 years of college behind me (and more in front, one day ;-) ) and might be of some assistance in proofreading documents for spelling and grammatical errors. |

I'm a 24-year-old german student of computer science. I heard about the LDP when I had to write a simple kernel module for my studies. I came in touch with the LPD over the Linux Kernel Module Programming guide. If I have enough time I will work as a translator (english-german). |

I have used computers since my childhood and have used Linux for the last 2 years. I see a great need to contribute to enhance the available documentation. I have an interest in writing -especailly technical documentation- and I would like to use this opportunity to pursue a possible interest in computer journalism or as a professional writer. I have studied at a university level for the last 2 years and have achieved a very proficient writiing style which is easy to read, concise and without many errors. I'm bilingual in both French and English. If some docs need to be ported over to English from French I could easily do so. Conversly, if a document needs to be translated in French I may be able to help. Note that my written French is not quite as strong. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or if you would like me to immediatly commence work on a project. |

I have been a user of Linux since I got my copy of Slackware 3.1 from a book sometime in the early nineties. I have installed, Debian and Red Hat too. Its now time for me to repay the benefits I have reaped from using this OS. I am basically a sysad/netad person and now work in computer security assesing vulnerabilities in Unix systems. My formal training is in HP-UX and Solaris but that was long time ago (in computer time). I run several Linux boxes at home and have a smoothwall firewall (www.smoothwall.org). I'll try to contribute my share for the benefit of open-source software. |

I started my Information Technology (IT) career as a technical writer and soon moved on to other responsibilities that my manager felt were more important. I've never returned to the writing field, but I do miss it. In my 14 years in IT I have documented, administered (computers), programmed, scripted, consulted, taught (managers, general users, and technical users), managed (people), presented, and above all learned. My primary strenghts are UN*X, Relational Databases, and "Trying to Do Things Right" rather than "Trying to Get Things Done Right Now". TDTR is harder than TGTDRN because managers tend to prefer the latter for its short-term benefits. |
