Self introduction: Lamar Owen

[Lamar Owen]

While I have been contributing to Red Hat's development (through maintenance 
of the PostgreSQL RPMset) for some years now, I'll go ahead with the self 
intro as requested on the fedora.us site.

I currently maintain the community packages for PostgreSQL, as well as 
building packages for other programs, including the SWORD project and 
BibleTime (Bible software for KDE using the SWORD libraries and modules).  
While I do some QA testing now, I am mostly interested in making the Fedora 
PostgreSQL packages the best they can be.

Historical Qualifications.
Over four years maintaining the PostgreSQL RPMs and contributing to 
discussions there and on the RPM list.  I've beta tested Red Hat for right at 
four years, since the 6.2 cycle.  I have programmed in numerous languages 
over the years: see my sourceforge profile (user lowen).  I maintain the 
postgresql database driver for the AOLserver project.  Red Hat trusts me (Red 
Hat 6.1 shipped with rebuilt versions of my PostgreSQL packages, and they 
have been the base packages ever since, even though RH has their own internal 
maintainer (currently David Jees, previously Andrew Overholt and before that 
Trond Eivind Glomsrød)), so I guess you should too. :-)

Key fingerprint (fresh key, as I've not used one before for public 
consumption):

I guess I'll begin signing the PostgreSQL RPM's at ftp.postgresql.org; they 
haven't previously been signed.
