Welcome to my user page!

I hope to be useful to this project. I'm based in the UK and have experience with GNU/Linux, teaching, systems administration, documentation, IT security, consulting, project management and a keen interest in education development.

I'm working on improving the Deployment Guide & relevant tools.

Please leave comments/suggestions/ideas on my talk page.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
