  I am interested in this topic due to my general interest in computers and my desire to learn about Linux, as you have more control over it than windows and since I want to be able to support the open source community.
  
  I hope to achieve a basic skill set in GNU Linux, which I will expand to broader Linux and computer knowledge.
  
  I may be interested in helping one I become a bit more skilled myself.

  I've been using Debian-based GNU/Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu and Linux Mint) almost exclusively for one year and a half now, I really like GNU/Linux. Looking at the syllabus I see that we are going to use CentOS so it's a great oportunity to expand my knowledge and learn about RPM-based distributions.

  What do you hope to achieve by participating?

  I want to improve my system administration skills and gain more in-depth knowledge of GNU/Linux, specially of RPM-based distributions like Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS, ...

  Are you interested in helping with the course organization?

  Yes. I'd be interested in helping. I think that the concept of collaborative and collective knowledge sharing is really interesting.
