Hi , my name is Haoxi Zhan. I am from China. You can call me Sami.

Personal Information

Name: Zhan, Haoxi

I hate all over-commercial things but I am not totally against commercial companies. I don't think this world is still pure. In fact, most of the world has lost its purity. And I will tried my best to help some communities stay pure for all my life.

Goal: Becoming a film director to make pure films so that I will be able to make an increasing number of people know how we struggle against the over-commercial world. Becoming computer programmer is also okay so that I can help with codes for KDE and other FOSS communities.

Time Table

In the past 2 months, I am away here and I really feel sorry. At first I thought I could be free after the IELTS test in 5.19. But as a matter of fact our teacher told me to come back to school and study with the whole class in spite of that I have sighed a document with our school that I would not attend the College Entance Exam in China. As a result, I am really busy in this period of time. And now in the summer vacation there is still a lot of terrible things to do with the preparing for SAT1 and SAT2 tests being the formost. However, I will make a plan to try my best to improve the efficiency in order to keep my projects running. It is my fault that I am not active during the period from 5.19 to 7.20. I sincerely apologize to those who have helped me a lot(Hans Chen, Annnw and Claudia). Now, here is my timetable

Time Period	Other tasks	Time expected to contributing

If I am ill I have to pause all work. If the study load is extremely heavy I think I also have to pause. But every time I pause my work I will take a not here.

The work of new edition stars on 2011.7.21. After this project I will try to find some other things to do for the community.

Thanks.

(I think in that way the work could be done more efficiently. SAT tests are not my willing because I am not into US at all but my parents are)

• I got ill on 8.1. So the work has to paused for a while.
• Recently I am in Shanghai for some itinerant exhibition of US LACs so I have to pause the work.
• Recently I am choosing colleges and preparing for essays so the contribution my be paused sometime.
