About me
https://rpadovani.com/about
Changing the world bit by bit. I’m Riccardo, student in Computer Science at University of Ferrara, Italy. I’m an open source enthusiast, and in my free time I collaborate with Ubuntu Community. I think it is a very important project to spread free software in the world, on every type of device. At the moment I focus mainly on Ubuntu for Phones, but I contributed to a lot (maybe too many) different projects, with patches and bug reports. You can find my curriculum here. More information in this blog post.

The speed improvement is terrific&#...
