About

Professionally, a technical writer and occasional consultant. OS-agnostic but prefer to work on FOSS. Currently the FOSS reporter at the Register.

Personally - well, a not-very-comprehensive list of characteristics might read, alphabetically: atheist, biker, biologist, SF fan, skeptic, vegetarian.
