Introduction and Biography

Hello folks. I am Ish Sookun from Mauritius. I started playing with Linux some 12 years ago while the Internet connection was still primitive on the country. I used to travel around the island to get hold of a copy of Linux. I started evangelizing openSUSE 3.5 years ago.

The openSUSE community has taught me a lot. I've seen how folks have been organizing conferences, launch parties etc around the world. I've tried doing the same in Mauritius.

Past events include :

• openSUSE Demo at University of Mauritius, 2010
• openSUSE Installfest, University of Mauritius, 2011
• openSUSE Advocate Program Presentation, Mugg & Bean, August 2013
• openSUSE Project Presentation, Infotech 2013 Conference, November 2013

Upcoming events :
