-Hi! My name is Bojan and I am not good in introductions, so I will (try to?) keep it to minimum. :)+===== Background =====
  
-My first contact with Linux was in 1999 or 2000. It was an article in a local computer magazine. I first got chance to try it in 2001It was something called Winlinux. Very soon switched to Red Hat. I was unlucky to not have a PC between 2003 and 2005. In 2005 got new one and continued exploringAt first I tried Susethan Debian, and finally at the end of the same year, settled with SlackSame year became moderator of the Linux section of [[http://www.mycity.rs|a large internet forum/community]] in [[wp>serbia|Serbia]]. That is how I first tried Slack - by the recommendation of another moderatorIt seems Slackware was invisible for computer media. They mostly covered Red hat, Mandrake, Suse and Knoppix. The history is repeating today, only the names changedAnyways, I was hooked and have been a Slacker ever since+Hi! Мy name is [[wp>bojan|Bojan]]. I am 31 year old male from [[wp>serbia|Serbia]] (Former Yugoslavia). I have been Linux user since 2001 and a Slackware user since 2005. I'm the author of the numerous articles in Serbian related to home usage of GNU/Linux (and few related to system administration) on the two sites I am (directly or indirectly) affiliated with. One of those is an informal and non-profit community of Slackware Linux users in Serbia: [[http://www.slackware-srbija.org/|Slackware Srbija (Serbia)]]. We have a smallbut active community consisting of the users of the various levels of knowledge or Slackware experience. I've been member of a community since 2006, but got involved in a more direct manner in 2011, when I became one of the staff members. The other one is a Linux subforum of one of the largest internet communities in Serbia. [[http://www.mycity.rs|MyCity]] is a (non for profit) group of 3 topically diverse web forums (one being IT forum) with the tradition spawning back to 2002MyCity Linux subforums are part of the MyCity Tech and have a long history. Many notable Serbian GNU/Linux and FOSS activists/users/developers have been, in some moment in time, more or less active in the discussions
  
-I don't have a serious writing background, but I did write an article for a print edition of [[http://www.digitalonline.rs/|"Digital"]] computer magazine (november of 2009). it was a 3-page article on Linux desktop environments. +===== SlackDocs involvement =====
  
-From 2011 and onwards I am one of the coordinators of [[http://slackware-srbija.org|Serbian Slackware community]].+My primary goal in contributing to the SlackDocs projects is to provide access to wide wealth of knowledge offered by SlackDocs to non-english speaking Serbian Slackware users ([[sr:start|Serbian translation]]). I also got involved in a [[slackware:localization|Slackware Localization]] article along the way
  
-===== Contact =====+There are other Slackware Serbia members [[http://slackware-srbija.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=1680|who considered contributing]] to the Serbian translation, but only two of us are active at this point of time (the other being fellow Serbian Slackware user [[user:slackmuz]]).
