About Me
I’m Maia Kozheva, a 24-year-old (as of this writing) programmer; Java programmer by occupation, open source enthusiast and volunteer Ubuntu MOTU and Debian Maintainer. Probably one of the least stereotypical Russians you’ll meet on the Internet.
My contributions to Ubuntu are primarily desktop related, especially in the fields of usability and Ayatana integration. I have also been contributing to various upstream projects to ensure their proper integration into Ubuntu.
You can find the link to my GPG key 3AF72612 on my Launchpad page.
My own open source projects are:
- Steadyflow, download manager for GNOME
- QInk, ink level monitor based on Qt and libinklevel
- Q-XDG, Qt library for loading freedesktop.org-compatible icon themes
- Quote UnQuote, the quote database engine for the Wookieepedia IRC QDB, written in PHP.
In my spare time, I occasionally write fanfiction, and am now planning an original fiction story in co-authorship with Alice, my muse and lesbian love.
This blog is mostly for Ubuntu-related posts and random musings from my daily life. My gender- and feminism-related posts are eventually going to move to my new Dreamwidth blog, since I don’t think they are of interest to anyone here. Not that anyone reads either of these blogs anyway. Except when linked from Planet Ubuntu, of course.
