I'm Rory.

I'm the Point of Contact for the Ubuntu Ireland team, so Canonical have
someone in Ireland to post things to. I'm pretty active on IRC (ebel is
my nick), and I chair the monthly IRC Meetings. You can normally find me
at the ubuntu hours etc.

I've been an linux fan for a few years and used linux soley for years.
In years past I spent some time helping Camara send ubuntu PCs to
schools in Africa and have thaught many people how to use ubuntu.

I'm in Dublin, and am working here as a Linux Sysadmin/Programmer. I'm a
big Python fan and have been spending lots of time recently doing
OpenStreetMap stuff. I'm also occasionally at the TOG, the Dublin
Hackerspace.

Outside IT I like to ride motorbikes and travel.
