Revision as of 21:23, 16 February 2009
Valentin-Stefan COBELEA
I am using Fedora since the beginning, at home and of course at the office. Before Fedora, I was using RedHat Linux and I was deeply enjoying it. I work in a Romanian office of a major U.S. Devices Software Optimization company, where I am a Development Engineer. Almost in every project, here at work, I've gladly used Fedora as a development platform.

Activities within Fedora
- I've just been accepted as an ambassador.
- Since in the area where I live there is no big activity regarding Linux, I do my best at work, to help my colleagues with Fedora related problems.
Fedora and me
- I like and use Fedora for everything I need. I want people to know about Fedora and what it could offer them.
- When somebody needs help with some issue I always explain and show how to solve that.
- I've created several documents that shows solutions for general problems, patches, manuals etc. All these things are really helping people, for instance here in the office where I work, because I see that there is no "publicity" for Fedora.
- Looking at other Linux distros, I think branded CDs, DVDs and even USB-data sticks could make more people use Fedora.
- Even if I'm working as a developer at work, almost all the Fedora related problems come to be.
Latest things I've done
- Helped my colleagues with the PackageKit update problem.
- Created several how-to wiki pages (inside company) for Fedora problems/issues.
- Installed and configured Fedora on several computers as base servers for different projects.
- Created USB memory sticks with Fedora 10 as rescue solutions for broken computers.
- Fixed the error caused by the kernel 2.6.27.9 on several Dell D630 notebooks (mine was the "guinee pig").
- Start working on creating service packs (with Service Packs Creator) for computers that don't have internet access (due to security issues).
- Tested Fedora 11 Alpha release.
- Contributions on several topics on a Romanian large forum.
