   8 <p>Hi, I'm bandali.  I am
   9 a <a href="//www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html">free software</a>
  10 activist and a computing scientist.  I graduated from the University
  11 of Waterloo with a <a href="/mmath">Master of Mathematics</a> degree
  12 in Computer Science, where I did research in formal logic, model
  13 checking, and verification supervised
  14 by <a href="//cs.uwaterloo.ca/~nday/">Prof. Nancy Day</a>, with the
  15 main goal of improving <strong>software and systems
  16 reliability</strong> through application of

  18 My research areas of interest include programming languages, proof
  19 assistants, and their type systems.</p>

  21 I am currently employed
  22 by <a href="//savoirfairelinux.com/en">Savoir-faire Linux</a> as a
  23 Free Software Consultant, where I get to hack on various parts
  24 of <a href="//jami.net">Jami</a>, work with the maintainers of Jami
  25 packages in various GNU/Linux distributions like Debian and Trisquel
  26 to help keep up-to-date the version of Jami available in the official
  27 repositories of those distributions, and generally serve as a
  28 community liaison between the Jami core development team and the wider
  29 free software community around Jami.
