Open Source Contribution

- mostly individual work
- Description
- I've started contributing to the open source community when I switched to Gentoo Linux Distribution, which happened about the same time I realized the importance of contribution to open source software. I've started by submitting bug reports and a few patches for applications like Gnome, Compiz, Exaile, Avant Window Navigator, Nautilussvn and few others. This became a habit and I started helping out more complex projects, like hal or dbus.
