I seem to be a tad late in chiming in on this thread....

I'm Gary Greene, a long-time KDE supporter in the SF Bay area and sometimes dev on various projects surrounding Linux on the desktop/notebook, etc. In most of these cases, the projects where either using KDE 3 or SC 4, or were ancillary and utilised the tech and underlying frameworks. Because of this, I've gained a love for the project, both the tech, and the people whom make it one of the most open and inviting F/OSS projects around.

My day job consists of being the senior Linux/Mac/UNIX SysOp at an IP TV middleware company. As my work has taken more and more of my time, sadly, my involvement with KDE and F/OSS has wilted. I've been trying to get back into it little by little with my ongoing work on a very different concept to the current Linux distributions for end users, but we'll see if my spare cycles hold up.
