Hello,

my name is Jose Rafael Rodriguez Galvan (yes, another Rafael :).
I am a profesor in the Department of Mathematics at the C=E1diz
University (Spain) and Director of the OSLUCA [0], the Free Software
Office of the C=E1diz University.

I have been using Debian for years and I think it's a good moment for
helping. I am not a DD (though I wold like, some day, to be),=20
my work in debian comes down to packaging wxMaxima, a wxWidgets
interface for the CAS Maxima, which I'm intending to maintain [1].

I have been always interested in free software related to Mathematics
and Engineering, concretely I have used Octave, but I have never helped
in it's development. Maintaining octave and related packages sounds good
for me, so you can count on my help for anything you consider necessary.

Rafa.
