I also managed the release of a large software distribution ([http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/8.2.0 OLPC's 8.2.0 OS release]) in which I helped to fold the work of many contributors, both large and small, into a successful and coherent software development experience.
*Anything else you think is relevant.
:: My entrée into professional software development, [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Rainbow rainbow], was begun in an internship not unlike the ones you're applying for here. Now it's time for me to "pay it forward".
