Location: providence ri
Standard Set Answer:I am really energized by the open source movement. It aligns with my strong belief in mutual aide and participatory involvement. I won't delve deeply into politics, but my anarchist tendencies are fostered and strengthened by these developments in technology. I'm a librarian and I would like to be able to use the best and most approprate tools to share information and foster civic engagement. I see developing computer proficiencies as an important facet of my librarianship.
As I have become more engaged in the use of technologies I see Linux as offering an escape from market forces such as Apple, Microsoft, et al. The Linux OS provides users the opportunity to maintain control of their tools. I would like to know more about web development in light of CMS systems. I'm only vaguely familiar with RoR, but would like to know more.
Computer skills: MySQL, git repositories, html, css, javascript, some java, lots of database searching
I'd like to be able to operate better from the command line in Linux on a desktop machine, be better able to work with a Linux server, know more about git, and get a grounding in the open source tools available.
I'd be interested in helping with the group.
ps. I've also been a mechanic, facillitator, and instructor in a community bike cooperative.

Standard Set Answer:I've been using Ubuntu on and off since 6.06 (Dodgy Duck? I can't remember its name now) but I've never really got to grips with what's going on. Although I've managed to sort out a number of problems, I've never really got much beyond competently following instructions found online and I'd really like to know what it is that I'm doing. I'm also toying with the idea of setting up Arch, as a kind of sink-or-swim learning experience. On top of that, I'm really excited by the whole idea of free/open source software and I'd like to have the skills to be able to give something back to a community from which I've benefited. About helping with the organization of the study group - dunno. Possibly. What's involved?
