bandali's homepage

Welcome to my homepage! I am a computing scientist and a free/libre software activist. I wear a few hats around the GNU Project, including as a GNU maintainer of Jami and GNUzilla and IceCat, and I'm an ex-intern and current volunteer with the Free Software Foundation. I currently work as a Software Engineer on the Desktop Team at Canonical.

You can contact me via email by writing to bandali@gnu.org or bandali@kelar.org, optionally encrypting it using my GPG key. If you do email me, please see my email page for some important related information.

Atom, RSS 2.0, and RSS 3.0 [?] feeds [?] of articles, talks, and other site material and updates are available.
