My name is Zoltan Hoppar from Hungary, 32 years old. I live in Győr. I'm one of the founders of the hungarian PCLOS community, an small HULUG (PCLinuxOS Hungary[1] - were 5 years online, RIP now), and the first common open linux forum for aiding beginner hungarian linux users the Linux Empire[2]. This is as an integrated info center, around linux, and OSS theme. The site general in content, and applies also the old presentations/meetings experiences (with Debian, Gentoo, PCLOS) what the team has made in different schools a few years ago in some city. (Debrecen, Pápa, a.s.o). Currently this small HULUG tries to create the first yet non-existing Fedora community, and expand locally.

I've got interested on linux after fed up with many troubles of MS Windows, and needed an easy, stable, nearly fast learnable OS. Basically looked just for hassle free localization platform, an complete translation system what is locally usable without huge risk of data loss for MS Windows programs. But later decided, (it was much better experience) that I will keep one or two of my favourite distributions, without dual booting Windows. I saw that in free world much needed to have a translator, and give people aid about/around linux. So, the journey has so begun... Dropped the hassle and MS Windows.

In the beginning it was only PCLOS 2007 (PCLOS were at that time an english only distro, witch made me very happy to be the first HU translator there). But after committing delays, and other community leading problems - after 2 years -, this has been changed to Fedora, at first time to Fedora 8. (For a short time, when getting acquainted was Fedora 7 too). After that, I have used as primary system only Fedora (9 till always to the current) - because of much better filled, and fills currently my dream. What dream? To have an fully international/localized, innovative, easy-to-use desktop distribution anyone who needs...without restriction on any platform.

Mostly I did, and do localization (l10n) work, EN-Hu, DE-Hu translations in many linux distributions, applications, projects, websites (Unity, Austrumi [3], Ubuntu, Gnome, KDE, Nathive [4], Browsershots [5], Findicons [6] and many more...). I love several translation platforms, but my favourite is Transifex. Translation is my passion since very-very long time - because of who couldn't speak, but want to be creative - this problem must not block, or keep anyone away. This is why I'm wanted to be an contributor in Fedora. Lately, I have noticed that we need an representative for Hungary, who makes presentations, or aids people and shows, to get better picture around Fedora, and around other FOSS softwares - so I have applied to be an Fedora Ambassador. I love to help, and aid people.

Currently I'm working for Nokia, but in my free time just linux, support chats, meetings, presentations, translations, friends, movies and girls, and anything what life could give. No exceptions. :)

Translating

Ambassador

This is my second dream, as far as I know the old big trade/meeting shows like Compfair/Info shows has disappeared at least a decade ago. Well, If you need some info about Fedora, want to contribute or just want to have an good contact, need a free disc, want to know more of my talks, meetings - drop me a mail, or call me. I'm open to every idea.

SIG's

Swag Research

I have made Fedora desk flags, and some T shirt samples. Also button designs with Nicu in the past.

Fedora HULUG community site

We hope also that we could gather more contributors, and we think the official hu.fedoracommunity.org opens a door that never existed earlier. We purchased storage, begun to build the basics of the site. The baby stage is currently not reachable - we need to fill up with content, and approve with the board. Right now, we're changed hosting site - and the basic drupal page is ready, awaiting for launch.

FAmSco

I have applied to be the member of FAmSco in 2011. To work out new ways, and stabilise the flow within EMEA. Hopefully I can do more for the whole community.
