I am Ankur, a student at the Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal.  
I'm currently a PhD candidate at the University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, United Kingdom.
 
I've been contributing to Fedora for almost five years now. It started with [[User:Sundaram| Rahul Sundaram]] taking a font packaging workshop. I've come a long way since then, but am still quite a learner. If there's anything I can help you with, feel free to ping me either over e-mail or one of the IM channels.
 
'''Note: Since I'm not in India, I cannot service media requests from India at the moment. Please ask the other Fedora contributors from India to help you out, or use one of the many online Linux stores to get yourself media. :('''
