new users - Australia

[Rob Whyte]

Hi,
 From the forrum thread about this list it suggested new list members 
introduce themselves.
So here I am,
I am a 33 year old single parent of two small children.
I am legally blind with some very limitted sight.
Not enough how ever to read text on screen or see an mouse pointer.
Though I see boxes popup and different blended colours I do rely on 
speakup and gnome-orca.

I have been using bsd/nix for about 8 years in a very small capacity i.e 
servers httpd ircd ftpd etc.

I now use Ubuntu via Vinux and have done for two years.

It was suggested to subscribe here as I am very interested in bleeding 
edge technology and usually my interest outweight my abilities :)

I look forward to trying to assist the list and watching how it works, 
how tasks are assigned and hope to be able to contribute in the future.

Kind regards
Rob Whyte
