GNOME contributions:
--------------------

Summary:
Hacks on early gnome-libs, and some patches to early GTK+. Actual Mandrake packaging

Detailed description:
I've contributed to GNOME in his first and early times. I wrote the gnome-font-picker widget, and submit some 
patches to GTK+ in times before 1.2.

After that I discontinued my work in GNOME and in fact some other people had to mantain the little things 
I've done. :-(

I've been always with an eye put in returning to help in GNOME development and some months ago I could began 
to help again.

What I've done this last months is a backport of GNOME 2 full set of RPMS done by Frederic Crozat for 
Mandrake 9.0 (the cooker ones actually) to Mandrake 8.2, making them available for testing to Mandrake Club 
members (http://www.mandrakeclub.com) and they will be in  all mandrake mirrors when I they were considered 
as done (not testing).

My interest now is to continue helping to have an up to date GNOME desktop in Mandrake linux stable 
distribution and while doing it finding and solving the bugs I can.

I don't know if these things qualify me as a Gnome Foundation member but as a legacy one I want to express my 
interest in continue here.

Regards.
