# introduction

I'm proud user of *BSD operating systems:

I regulary follow information on mailing-lists, blogs and IRC, but I'm particulary interested in development of DragonflyBSD and OpenBSD.
Though, most of my daily time takes working with OpenBSD and FreeBSD. For example, here's my OpenBSD case-painted home router.
I also use some variants of these main BSD's like PC-BSD and custom LiveCDs, but I don't think they are worth mentioning.

# history

I've been using BSD's since 90-ies for more than 10 years. I remember installing FreeBSD 2.2.x, but my first BSD was NetBSD 1.2.x.
You can check bsd-family-tree to look into BSD's development and descendants over the years.

# contribution

My direct contributions to these operating systems are pretty small (I guess you can't count that painted case; see above). For now.
But currently I'm mostly involved in FreeBSD's ports. I'm sending patches and being maintainer for devel/geany.
