| Hi, My name is Joe O'Dell and I've been working on Fedora for quite a while.
| | Due to GCSEs, and lots of other work, I'm currently not able to be involved with the Fedora Community. |
|
| |
|
| I will try to keep this short, as there are lots of places online where you can read more about me.
| | If you need to contact me, please email me: ascenseur@fedoraproject.org |
| | |
| I'm a student at an Upper (Secondary) School in Bedfordshire (UK), I'm a GEEK and I have a passion for FLOSS, Linux and Software Freedom. :)
| |
| | |
| I have some of the more usual hobbies, other than being a geek, such as reading, making cool-beans friends and enjoying life!
| |
| | |
| Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, and do have a look around!
| |
| | |
| Regards,
| |

| = Me & Linux =
| |
| | |
| Although I'm still at school, I've been using Linux for quite a while now - I first started using it way back in 2005, when I finally decided to give MS the boot. I'd finally become tired of paying for an OS, while there were perfectly good ones (and even better ones!) available on the internet.
| |
| | |
| I have a passion to share Linux, and hopefully I can benefit a lot of people!

| * '''Free Media contributor since 2009!'''
| |
| I love being part of the FreeMedia group, as it lets me give something back to the world :)
| |
| | |
| I don't have extreme amounts of money that I can give, but by sending a couple of 25p discs every month, I know someone else has experienced linux, and that's all good!
| |
| | |
| If you are interested in seeing where I send my DVDs to, have a look at [[User:Ascenseur/FreeMedia|My FreeMedia Page]].
| |
| | |
| * '''Promoting Fedora'''
| |
| I aim to promote Fedora (but also other Linux distros) to the wide community in which I live in. This is why I have set up my own LUG ''(Linux User Group)'', as I believe that there is a lot I can help others learn, and Fedora is a part of it!
| |
| | |
| If you're interested in my LUG, have a look at [http://bedslug.co.cc bedslug.co.cc]
| |
| | |
| * '''Designing FreeMedia resources'''
| |
| I have created a FreeMedia mailer to use when sending DVDs abroad, so that it gets there safely whilst being '''extremely''' economical on postage costs.
| |
| | |
| The first version is available on my fedorapeople.org account [http://ascenseur.fedorapeople.org/fedora_mailer_F12.otg here].
