Hi there guys. I will introduce myself, my name is César Gómez Martín and I am currently involved with gnuLinEx. I was born in Cáceres (Extremadura) and I have been living there for more than 24 years (since my birth). I am also working with Dario Rapisardi at the same office so I can help as a local contact too.
