Duncan M. McGreggor started his programming career at the ripe old age of 11 in the early 80s. From his adventures in rewriting games on Kaypro's luggable CP/M machine to the open source world, programming has been his passion. When Duncan wasn't hacking, he was an Army MI linguist; worked his way up to sous chef in a Massachusetts restaurant; studied quantum mechanics and mathematics as a physics major; learned meditation while living with Tibetan monks; and started his own software consulting company. His contract work included systems management solutions for the U.S. Federal Government as well as Zenoss, Inc. After consulting for several years, Duncan joined an engineering startup as the COO and eventually left that position for Canonical where he manages teams in the Product Strategy group, improving the Ubuntu Linux distribution.
