Hi,
I´m Tony.
I haven´t written any documentation or programs or anything,
but I´ve been using linux since RH7.1, mostly with the K12Linux
project´s stuff.
I´m in no way a Linux expert, but I am a dedicated and grateful FOSS user.
Completely erased all Windows from my machine in 2001 and haven´t looked
back.
I taught English in public school here in CT.
Left a few linux boxes made from donated spare parts in a couple of
schools, gave a few away to students.
Served on Tech committees at a couple of schools, both of which are now
using Linux servers for e-mail and web servers, at least.
Used to distribute K12ltsp CDs and OO.o from
http://www.school-library.net but stopped.
Still advocate for FOSS in school when and where I can, although I am no
longer teaching.
I´m now working as a translator and looking for a way to give back to
the community
in gratitude for all the great tools and toys.
I figure translating documentation is probably a better place for me
than translating software...I don´t know.
English is my native language, but I bi-lingual in Brazilian Portuguese
(my wife is from Brasil).
I work as a court-interpreter for Portuguese/English, and also translate
French and Spanish to English.
So, I can translate English documentation to Portuguese, and Portuguese,
French or Spanish to English.
I´m not sure how much documentation comes through in those languages,
but I know there are
developers all over the world, so I figure I must be able to be of use
somewhere.
I am an excellent proofreader of translated materials, too, if that´s
useful.
I´m just now learning about encryption and gpg keys and cvs, so I´m a
little clumsy, but
I catch on quick.
Heck, I bought my first computer in 2000, was using linux only a year
later, and was building
machines within a few more months.
