I'm interested in lending a hand on the team. I've been lurking on the
list and IRC (Zelut) for some time now, and I generally have quite a
bit of time to put toward projects. I'm always looking for new things
to learn and new challenges to push me.

Some of my relevant experience includes:

  * RHCE, RHCX/I (Engineer, Examiner / Instructor)
  * Previously a Linux Instructor (primarily Red Hat)
  * Long-time Ubuntu contributor (author of
http://ubuntu-tutorials.com, founder/lead of Ubuntu Utah Loco, Ubuntu
Member)
  * Currently full-time SA contractor for the US Dept. of Defense.
Primarily Red Hat / CentOS, with a little Debian & FreeBSD
  * Experience with xen, puppet, cobbler, nagios, and most common
services (dns, mail, etc, etc.)

Even if I can start out with just simple tasks, I'm interested in
helping where I can toward a really stable infrastructure for GNOME.

Thanks,
