I'm currently a PhD candidate at the Biocomputation group at the University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, United Kingdom.

I've been contributing to Fedora for a while now. It started with 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.

I'm interested in my research, computational neuroscience, and enabling Open Science in whatever way I can help.

Note: Since I'm not in India, I cannot service media requests from India currently.

Where/when to catch me

I'm in quite a few Fedora IRC channels, and lots of mailing lists. I should be around from 1100 - 1700 BST (British Standard Time) throughtout the week. Ping me anytime, and I'll respond ASAP :)

Contributions

Package maintainer - I maintain a few packages and now my focus has somewhat shifted to software related to research, neouroscience and other fields in general.
I'm working on getting the NeuroFedora SIG off the ground. The goal is to make Fedora a great platform for neuroscience research by building on our Fedora Workstation product. (We need help, come join us!)
- Here's a list of packages that I maintain. I'm quite adept at rpm packaging, so do ping me if you need assistance/reviews.
- Here's a list of some new software that I've packaged that need review. Please pick up any of them if you have the cycles. I'm always up for review swaps too!
- Here's a list of packages I'm currently reviewing. Unofficial reviews are most welcome, especially if you're looking for sponsorship.
- Here's a list of package reviews I've done in the past.
- Here's a list of my packages under review at the moment.
Member of the Fedora_Join_SIG: If you're looking to get started with fedora, join the mailing list, or just drop me an email!
I was the Fedora election wrangler for the Fedora 19 Election cycle.
I was the Fedora election wrangler for the Fedora 20 Election cycle.
