Appointment as Ubuntu member: Congratulations to Harisfazillah Jamel aka linuxmalaysia

Although it’s kinda late, I still want to congratulate linuxmalaysia (Harisfazillah Jamel) for his appointment as an official Ubuntu Member on the last Asia Oceania Regional Board meeting on 28 April 2009.

The current official members in our local community (Ubuntu-my) as follows :

1. BuffaloSoldier
2. fenris
3. GunbladeIV
4. linuxmalaysia
5. nbliang
6. zarul

Hopefully with this appointment, our community will continue to flourish with activities that would benefit free and open source users as a whole.
