Given that you're here, and apparently reading this tripe, I assume you want to know something about me. Well, I'm in my early 30s and I currently live near Southampton on the south coast of England. I've been married to Amanda since March 1998 and we have a son, Callum, who was born in January 2007.

I used to be a UNIX Systems Administrator for an insurance company. Before that I was Network Manager at SUSE Linux UK. I am probably best known for my work on the openSUSE GNOME repositories and for running Planet SUSE, where you can read the latest blogs from the openSUSE community.

I've been a curate at an Anglican church here since July 2007 and before that I was training at St John's College, Nottingham. Before starting my training, we lived in Watford, which is in Hertfordshire, just north-west of London.
