James, here is a quick stab at an intro:

"Dustin Kirkland is a developer on Canonical's Ubuntu Server Team,
working from Austin, Texas, USA. He is the author of the highly
anticipated encrypted private directories feature in the upcoming
Ubuntu 8.10 release. Previously, Dustin worked for IBM in various
capacities, including as an on-site employee at Red Hat. There he
discovered his interest in working with Linux at the distribution
level, which eventually led him to Canonical."

If possible, I would like to release this on Monday, with the UWN,
which will include an interview with Dustin that's a bit more
community-oriented.
