作者简介：
Jarod Wilson has been an avid Linux user since circa 1997, when he was first introduced to Red Hat Linux 4.2 in a UNIX Operating Systems course in college. One spring about three years ago, Jarod was between jobs and discovered the MythTV project, and loved it so much he decided to help try to make it accessible to as many people as possible, and thus was born his MythTV on Fedora HOW-TO, dubbed Fedora Myth(TV)ology, which he still maintains to this day (when time permits). Professionally, every job he’s held since college has incorporated daily use of Linux. Jarod recently left high-performance computing cluster vendor Linux Networx, where he was an on-site field service engineer for a large customer, for a job at the very company from whence his first taste of Linux came. Jarod currently works in Red Hat’s Enterprise Kernel Group as a senior software engineer, focused on kernel testing, but also contributes time and effort to Red Hat’s Fedora Core Linux community distribution.
