<p>Hello everyone, please let me tell you my history with Fedora and The Free software world. <br>
</p>
<p>I'm Guilherme Gonçalves from Rio de Janeiro *(Brazil) but the community prefer call me
"Razgriz"*(i really don't know why but perhaps...my ex-wife can explain this thing one day if...). <br></p><p>My first contact
with tux was in 1996 and i am a "pure"*(100% free software user) user
since 1997. But my contributions inside the world of free software
started only in the earlies of 2005 writing documentation about computer
graphics with free software at "vol"*(<a href="http://www.vivaolinux.com.br">www.vivaolinux.com.br</a>), some
months after my first doc, Davidson Paulo(the creator of the old project "Guia Bozolinux" and
now a Ambassador) invited me to write a book about the "Gnu Image
Manipulation Program*(Gimp), it was a huge and very ambitious project
but in the end with hard work yeah we did it! =] then since that great
moment my life was turned into a goal : the community must respect the
computer graphics made with free software but first the community must
know more about it ! Then i will continue doing documentation to teach
all thing that i know and what i will learn about it in the future.
</p>
<p>Well, my history with Fedora starts in 2007, when i met
Rodrigo Padula and Cristiano Furtado*(jasoonfedora) and he convinced me to get fedora and
try it during the event, after some time inside the same event he
invited me to join the ambassadors team, but thanks to problems with
time we lost contact. A couple of months later he invited me to joying
the artwork team of the project <a href="http://www.projetofedora.org/Revista">"Revista Fedora Brazil"</a>
and now i feel
that i can help more making my work in the magazine padronizing the
layout, creating new visual stuff for the project and helping with
other tasks and taking fedora to my classes in the Linux events that my
default mini-course "The Gimp for creative minds" and other actions where invited. <br>
</p>
<p>Well, here i am to help everyone and contribute with everything that
i can, i will do my best to the project as you all make every time. <br>
</p>
<p>just one last ask, if someone wanna know more about
computergraphics, please just send me an email and i will help you, and
if you know portuguese and think that stuff is usefull please translate
this to other language =]. <br>
