Hello Planet Ubuntu!

A week ago today I was accepted as an Ubuntu Member at the Membership Board meeting held on the 20th of March 2013. I genuinely feel honoured and delighted having been accepted as a member.

My name is Mike O’Donohue and I am an active member of the Ubuntu Ireland Team.  I cannot be considered technically proficient by any measure and as a consequence my humble contributions to Ubuntu centre on advocacy efforts and helping out with team activities as best I can.  I have great admiration for, and belief in, the Ubuntu project.  The philosophy behind the project is what drew me to it.  The fact that someone like myself can become an active member of this larger community is absolutely amazing.

Above all I am a user of Ubuntu (I am one of those human beings) and I’d like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank everyone who has contributed to making Ubuntu what it is today. I also extend my heartfelt appreciation to all those currently working on the project bringing it to the next level.
