== About ==
Hello, my name is Mario Lipinski. I was born in December 1983 in Hildesheim, Germany and am now living in Braunschweig (Brunswick) in Lower Saxony, Germany. In personal life I am a student of computer science at the Technical University Carolina Wilhelmina Braunschweig with specialisation in networking and multimedia, information systems and hardware software systems and technical company management as non-technical task. I earn some money with my small business in web design and development and IT service and sometimes work for an event company at fairs as hand, video and/or lighting engineer. In my spare time I like using computer and internet and i enjoy playing table tennis and listening to (hard) electronic music and attending such events.
== CAcert history ==
I had my first contact with CAcert at the [[events/CeBit|CeBIT 2005]] after reading an article on CAcert and got assured there for issuing certificates for my web server. So I have been a passive user for one year.
I got an email before [[events/CeBit2006|CeBIT 2006]] that assurers where needed for the event. Since I was not living far from Hannover, I agreed to volunteer. Since Organisation Assurance was to be announced on CeBIT 2006, I was trained as an organisation consultant and did this especially for CeBIT 2006. There I also got an organisation assured for which I am still working as admin and we are still using CAcert there. We are also using CAcert for a personal project since then.
The time after CeBIT 2006 was quite calm around my activity within CAcert. Every few month I answeared requests for Organisation Assurance. I also volunteered at [[events/CeBit2007|CeBIT 2007]] as assurer and organisation consultant.
Besided the usual assurances and contact with interested parties, many things around CAcert changed - the managements structure completely changed for adjusting CAcert to its enourmous size it had grown to. Jens and Ian somehow convinced me to coordinate events (e.g. trade shows) as CAcert [[EventOrganisationOfficer|Event Organisation Officer]] and to support the organisers of the individual events.
A short time after CeBIT 2007, organisation assurance was stopped. In fall the organisation assurance programme was renewed and established more people to become organisation assurer - so after being organisation consultant I became organisation assurer.
In 2008 I also was at [[events/CeBit2008]] CeBIT for CAcert and also at the last [[events/Systems2008|Systems]] fair for assuring individuals and organisations.
As CeBIT somehow has a key role within my involvement with CAcert again at [[events/CeBit2009|CeBIT 2009]] things changed for me. I handed the [[EventOrganisationOfficer|Event Organisation Officer]] role over to [[UlrichSchroeter|Ulrich]] and got involved in software development. I also attended the [[https://dev.cacert.cl/wiki/birdshack/Work_History|Innsbruck meeting]] and there I was involved in the BirdShack design. I also helped out with some [[Events/AssurerTrainingEvents|ATEs]]. Later I became administrator of [[SystemAdministration/Systems/Wiki|wiki]] and [[SystemAdministration/Systems/Issue|issue tracking]] and an [[ArbitrationForum|Arbitrator]].
2010 I was nominated to become a [[Board]] member candidate.
== TODO ==
* CAcert design for wiki
* Certificate login for wiki and issue tracking
* Get started with BirdShack development
