I am '''Siddharth''' working in Infosys Technologies Ltd (India).
I am '''Siddharth'''. I, like typical programmers out there who like to hack their code and enjoy it... like the ideas of Free Software Movement (the Freedom) and want to be part of it (not just being a consumer coz that we all know wont work). My liking of Fedora goes to its roots and the former RedHat desktop Linux, and to me what Fedora provides is the cleanest and most powerful environment, The innovation drive for which Fedora is known for gives it a unique place in Distributions.
The First Linux I used Was <em>Knoppix 1.0</em> and I was very Impressed by it, the KDE desktop in comparison with MS was really good... Never was able to put away the Charm of OSS... Mostly I visited Fedoraproject.ORG for Download Purpose... but in My Visit Once I saw The Invitation to Join The Ambassadors Group... I Made an account with Help of [[ThomasChung]] and Joined The Group and now I am The [[Distribution/FreeMedia/India| Co-ordinator]] for '''Fedora Free Media Program in India'''
