Hi there Ambassadors. My name is Scott Thistle and I was a former, albeit not very active, Ambassador in a previous life. I used to be located in eastern Canada and there was not a whole lot of Ambassador stuff happening there. I have since moved to Alberta, Canada and hope to become a more active participant. I have also signed up for the #fedora-docs group in the event that I can be of some assistance there.

I have been a linux user and admin for about 12-13 years with about 25 years of overall PC experience (started initially supporting QNX). I began using Linux when VMware shipped workstation 1.0 which only ran on Linux. My experience has ranged from PCs to Sun hardware to IBM pSeries and beyond. My career right now is a self-employeed contractor specializing in technical architecture with particular emphasis on RHEL in the Enterprise. Currently working for the power grid operator in Alberta deploying Oracle RAC/RDBMS on Enterprise Linux.

I guess, right now, I have a little more time to formally give something back. I have, informally, been a huge proponent of Linux and Open Source. I certainly hope to be of some help somewhere in this great project area. I am on IRC as sthistle so feel free to pop me a line..
