// about me
\\ Some personal information

I live in Belgium. I'm currently working at the University of Ghent. I'm playing with Linux distributions since 1998. Though you probably can guess what distribution I'm using since a long time...

My native language is Dutch, though I speek fluent English, I can understand German rather good, I have a basic understanding of French and I have notions of Spanish and a little bit of Italian.



If you want to contact me try my email address found on the bottom of this site. You could also try to reach me on IRC: luk on irc.debian.org or irc.oftc.net.
You can also meet me in person at a LUGWV meeting, at FOSDEM, maybe at other more or less local events (in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany or France), Debconf or after making an appointment.
 
\\ Some (more or less) important links
Debian GNU/* The Debian Project is the largest GNU/Linux-Distribution named Debian GNU/Linux and released for more than ten Architectures (including Intel x86, AMD64, PowerPC and many more). The Project consists of more than 1000 developers creating the Distribution according to the strict policies Debian has.

In the near future Debian will not only support the Linux Kernel but will add support for other Kernels like the HURD, the NetBSD and the FreeBSD one.
Packages The Debian Distribution consist of more than 10000 Packages (unstable) now. Hey, thats huge, really. On this website you can search for a specific package.
SPI SPI is a non-profit organization which was founded to help organizations develop and distribute open hardware and software. It can take care of the administrative tasks of organizations like donation handling and legal issues.
DELAYED Queue. The DELAYED queue is an upload queue for NMUs. The upload is delayed to give the package maintainer a chance to upload a newer package before the NMU would enter the archive.
Debian Release Management. Overview of the release standards, release updates, useful links and update policies.
 
// Work I do for Debian
  • First I'm one of the Release Managers and member of the Stable Release Team.
  • Next I maintain a bunch of packages, see below for a list.
  • I also sponsor people who are not yet a Debian Developer, so they can maintain their own packages.
  • I'm one of the board members and Membership Committee members of SPI
  • I also help to coordinate the key signing of prospective developers.
  • Last, but not least, I try to help the Debian QA efforts.
