Greetings

Hello, my name is Aaron Train. I am a recent graduate of Computer Programming and Analysis. As of the previous winter (08), I have transferred into the BSD program to earn a degree. Currently, I am enrolled in a whole slew of different courses ranging from the 3rd to the 7th semester. I find open source fascinating, particularly Mozilla's projects as well as Canonical's Ubuntu GNU/Linux project. I look forward to tinkering with the innards of Firefox, in DPS909. I also enjoy learning more about software development, open source and current/future web applications, and lastly modern programming languages. |
