In 2009 and 2010 I volunteered for Drupal Camp Colorado. Since 2008, I have attended four Drupalcons and became an individual member of the Drupal Association during the spring of 2010.

At the moment I am actively encouraging Colorado Libraries to adopt Drupal by training, project and support.
During Drupalcon Copenhagen, I had the privilege of recording, editing and contributing three videos of the pre-conference to archive.org under the GPL and Creative Commons License as requested by webchick. Angie Byron and the other attendees of the pre-conference really made me feel welcome in the community and this along with many other similar experiences has further pushed my desire to contribute more to community.

A little more of my history:
Since, 2001 I have been building web sites, web related software and server implementations as a profession. I consider myself to be a skilled webmaster, theme creator and I hope to soon be an intermediate Drupal module developer/maintainer by the end of 2011. I have been an avid Linux user and administrator since 1999 and also have a passion for FreeBSD and uphold the principals of the Free Software Foundation which include the General Public License.
I studied Information Systems and Management at the Metropolitan State College of Denver.
For the last two and a half years, I have lived and breathed Drupal. It would be a great honor and privilege to hold a CVS account and contribute code to the community.
There are three modules that I wish to commit and maintain.
Module 1: This module extends Ubercart for integration with the AvantLink system: http://www.avantlink.com and is currently implemented on http://frontrangeanglers.com. I could not find an existing module, so my team authored one.
Module 2: A simple module that activates lightbox2 notice message only during the first page load.
Module 3: An XML schema module that extends the XC Drupal Toolkit http://drupal.org/project/xc. This module is currently implemented on http://creatingcommunities-denverlibrary.org
To the best of my knowledge, these modules do not provide any duplications.
I would also like to co-maintain a couple modules in the future such as the http://drupal.org/project/amazon_store.
Also, rfay and I have been talking about creating a new Amazon module that would provide synchronization between Ubercart and Amazon inventory.
Please approve my CVS account application.
Best regards,
Justin Christoffersen

avpadernoHello, and thank you for applying for a CVS account.
As per requirements, you need to attach here the archive containing the proposed module. We just review a module/theme per applicant, though.

larsdesigns commentedI have attached one of the modules that I am working on. The AvantLink module is currently running on a production site (http://frontrangeanglers.com) but I would like to add a settings page to it soon.
Thanks

avpadernoHello, and thank you for applying for a CVS account. I am adding the review tags, and some volunteers will review the code, pointing out what it needs to be changed.

larsdesigns commentedI did not realize this application would be made public. Can I ask that you removed my phone number?
I will work on the module this week and attach new code as soon as I can.
Thanks,
Justin

avpadernoPlease read the following links as this is very important information about CVS applications.
Drupal.org has moved from CVS to Git! This is a very significant change for the Drupal community and for these applications. Please read Migrating from CVS Applications to (Git) Full Project Applications and Applying for permission to opt into security advisory coverage on how this affects and benefits you and the application process. In short, every user has now the permissions necessary to create new projects, but they need to apply for opt into security advisory coverage. Without applying, the projects will have a warning on projects that says:
