Hi!
My name is Jaroslav Lichtblau and I live in Czech Republic. I'm 26 and
this year my study time will be over.

I discovered GNU/Linux in year 2003. It took me about one year to learn
the basics and since then I'm using it solely - on my home PC and my NB.
Until now I went through Mandrake and Ubuntu. I was also trying out some
other distros, but wasn't quite happy. One year ago I heard some rumors
about ArchLinux and gave it a try. Since then I'm catched and forgot
about other distributions One of the reasons was AUR. Me and my
girlfriend used to play game named cuyo together pretty often. But
I didn't find it packaged in Arch. So after some time reading in the
wiki I was able to make my first working PKGBUILD for it and I had our
game nice packaged and installed in the system. Since then I am adopting
and contributing PKGBUILD because it's so much fun to me.

Besides of that, I do translate programs (osmo, epdfview, ...) into
czech because the subject of my studies is languages - german mostly,
but I can also talk/understand english, so let's use it.

As a TU I will offer my knowledge and time to improve my favourite
distribution and also the open source world, which gave me so much in
the last few years. I think I have also some nice packages like
subtitleeditor, cream, fillets-ng ... and cuyo which I would like to
add to the [community] repo. In the last time I watched closely on new
and updated PKGBUILDs, so I would be happy to do it further as a TU.

In my free time I like reading fantasy/sci-fi books. Knowing this, my AUR
login is obvious - Dragonlord. My irc and arch forum nick is drag0nl0rd.

The last thing, Allan is so kind to sponsor my application.
Let's start the trial any questions and suggestions will be answered.

Sincerely,
Jaroslav

Now I'm finished losing at poker I will add some more to the discussion.

I was looking at a couple of Jaroslav's packages for moving into
community and saw he maintained a fair number in the AUR. I had a brief
look at a few of them and the looked good quality. I also recognized
his username from post to this mailing list asking for packages to be
orphaned. So instead of sending an email saying I was going to move his
package to community, I suggested he apply to be a TU. I think he will
be a good addition to our team.


Cheers,
Allan

Hi!

My name is Geoffroy Carrier. I'm a 20-year-old French comp.sci. student.

I started using Linux on 1998, and Archlinux around a year ago, after a
lot of Debian, some Gentoo and Fedora, and tests of many other
distributions.
I now use it on all my 6 computers, from the server to the eeepc.
I've been available for more than 50 weeks per year for the last 3 years.

My main subjects of interest are:
- community64
- The-Unix-way console-based tools
- Server-oriented tools
- Security issues

I'll focus on adopting orphaned packages in a first time, but there
are plenty of packages that I'd like to work on, as localepurge, wol,
btanks, docutils, aur-sync, etc.

I'm working on automated makedepends checks with a tool using nilfs
called mdma. I'll give you some more information soon.

I also joined uArch recently, and follow kdemod with much intereset.

I already created/adopted a few packages:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&K=gcarrier&PP=40

I speak a poor English, so I'll keep this message short
But I am willing to answer all your questions.
A big "Thank you" to the people I recently met through flyspray, IRC,
jabber and who confirmed me in my will to apply.

I believe Jaroslav would be a nice addition to our team.
BTW you've got a beautiful family name! May your "blue light" shines on
us

Do you have a sponsor? If not, I'm proud to sponsor you.
I've looked some of your packages, I've see your skill with sed & co.
and your PKGBUILDs looks good.
We need a lot of 64bit Trusted User
A question: Do you have only x86-64 as hardware or you have both 32 and 64 bit?

+1 from me, from what I've seen of Geoffroy and his packages he would
make a great addition to the Trusted Users.

Hi Jaroslav. As you may notice by your inbox I have checked a few
random packages of yours. I didn't see anything particularly wrong
(except for tome, however I'm confident you'll fix it soon). Generally
I think you are a good packager, skillful enough and fast at fixing
things when needed, however take care to the few tips I gave you:
those are small things, but they help creating perfect packages ;-)

Thank you.

I have 2 x86-64 (core 2 duo @ 2ghz, athlon64 x2 @ ~2ghz) + 3 i686
(core duo @ 2ghz, core solo @ 1 ghz, celeron m @ 900mhz), and a zonbu
i only use for multimedia playback (via c7 @ 1.2ghz).
Plus 32 bits chroot on one of my x86_64, but I remember it may cause
problems with gcc.
