<div>Hi Ed. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I just sent out a very similar intro email about an hour ago. My background is more in systems engineering and administration with an emphasis on automated deployment and the big services (bind,sendmail,squid,apache,etc). I have a nice lab environment that I can use for testing and development. It is comprised of a handful of managed GB switches, a 6TB NAS and 6 servers. I do a lot with virtualization too. I noticed that there was a desire for possibly som php/mysql. I am very comfortable with that too!</div>

To give you some of my background, I have a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering but have spent the majority of my professional career in the realm of scientific application programming, system administration and network security. I have contributed to open source projects in the past mostly with code contributions that included random patch submissions for the FreeBSD project. I am adept at most compiled/scripted languages to include C, C++, ObjC, Python, Bash, etc with the exclusion of Java/C#. After several years I am again in a position where I can contribute again to the F/OSS community. In the past I mostly used the BSD flavor of UNIX OSes, Debian and Solaris but I recently tried Redhat again after a number of years and I am quite impressed with the latest iterations of the package. I'll be lurking on the list and on the IRC channel from time to time if anyone is interested in a somewhat veteran hand. As a note, in the past I had an array of hardware and processor architectures that I could test various code on but at the moment I am limited to one x86 desktop machine for any development and testing. Thank you for your time and have a nice day.<br>
