Ambassador self introduction

[Bhargav Prasanna]

Hi all,

I've requested to become a Fedora Ambassador. A short introduction
about myself follows:

I'm Bhargav Prasanna. I'm doing my pre-final year in electrical and
electronics engineering at Meenakshi Sundararajan Engineering College,
Chennai.
I'm 19 years old and I've been using Fedora since sulphur.
The other operating systems I use extensively include Arch Linux and Debian.
I've been involved in small scale conversion (if that is what you can
call it) of people including my classmates, batchmates, juniors and
other friends from proprietary OSs to F/OSS OSs which mainly include
Fedora, and (K)Ubuntu. Apart from that, I've authored a two bugfixes
for GNOME (both of which are yet to be committed and are minor
anyway).

I hope that becoming an ambassador would help me help my friends and
the community of people who do not know anything about F/OSS better
and I'm looking  forward to having a good time working with Fedora.

Hi everyone,

I recently applied to become a Fedora ambassador now I am. A short
introduction about me:

I entered the Linux world just an year ago so I am no big gun. Currently I
am using Fedora 10 and love to use it as primary OS am an engineering
student living in Delhi and studying at KIIT, Gurgaon. I have started people
telling about Free Open Source Software as most of the students are unaware
of it and I like sharing about it and recently with the help of IIT Delhi
Linux User Group Members and some students from our college we conducted a
workshop on FOSS http://bit.ly/repKIIT24. I have also done some translation
work for GNOME Do at Launchpad.net other than that I got Fedora 10 installed
in my college labs so now a lot of students know about Fedora and FOSS so
spreading the word about FOSS telling people about it and helping them is
what I do that's it !! Now working on various ways to spread
FOSS..............

Welcome to Fedora.  Thanks for introducing yourself here. Are you
subscribed to the Chennai LUG list and active there? Since I have signed
up to your mentor, I would have like a few more conversations before I
sponsor you.  Come up to #fedora-india when you have time and we can chat.

Yes. I have subscribed to the Chennai LUG list and I'm active to a
certain extent.

Yes sure. My end semester exams are going on right now. Because of
them, I might not be able to participate in the F12 release fest (if
there is one that will be held). =(

Once my semesters are over, which will be by the end of this month, I
can give my fullest.
