Derald Woods is a 13-year engineering veteran who today works in software development, designing and supporting electronic vehicle controls for heavy equipment and trucks.

We are always considering different ways to serve the Linux community. We use a variety of social networks to share information about Linux that we hope is useful. We would like to learn from you how we can be even more useful to our followers on LinkedIn in 2012 and are running an informal poll on the site today and tomorrow to understand what types of information (Linux training, Linux jobs, etc.,) you would like to see from us on that network. Please take one minute to click your preferences: Linux Foundation LinkedIn poll.
It has been a pleasure celebrating 20 years of Linux with you throughout the year. We're looking forward to even deeper collaboration with you in 2012. Have a safe and Happy New Year!
