Hi Folks,

Let me introduce myself.
My name is Benjamin Pereto and i'm a young system admin / system engineer
from Switzerland.
That all clichés are complete, I work for my bread and water as a system
specialist in a bank. There, I'm responsible for all linux servers, mostly
redhat. But I also get to know fedora and other distributions.

I don't now if its the same by you, I had an apprentice (trainee) 2008.
Time by time I achieved the RHCE and now I want to contribute back, what
helped me to learn and work with awesome linux.

So my skills, earned by work or leisure are, base OS maintaining, such as
installation, administration, deploying, software integration.
Most common use is java, so i work with httpd, jboss, tomcat aswell the
squid proxy infrastructure with dns.

The Hardware which linux runs is HP Proliant Systems, and the
virtualization is mostly vmware. Incidentally I work on Sun SPARC or AIX
from IBM.

What is a sysadmin/engineer without programming, right?
I know shell scripting very well. Others are the web (php, html(5), css,
jquery) or java (android sdk).
At the moment i'm trying python.

I would like to learn more from a open source project. As well this is the
first time i want to work in an community and a look behind the walls. I
see what happens.
I'm expect to learn new programming languages and more automation and
improve my understanding new technologies. The automation at my work is not
really good - time to change (wink)?

For taking the firsts steps, a minimum of 4-6 hours a week is not a
problem, but depends of the amount of work. At the trac I saw one, two
tickets, but I really want get to know some more.

Feel free to contact me, to get involved.

Regards,
Benjamin Pereto
