I am a long time UNIX system administrator and open source advocate. In recent years my primary focus as been on Linux & FreeBSD systems administration, networking, telecom, and SAN/storage management. I love building infrastructure, tying systems together, creating processes, and bringing people together in support of their technical efforts.
When I can, I try to contribute back to the open source projects either with patches, or by helping others in technical support forums.

Some places in the world I hear are restricting any outside activity, including walking. I've heard stories from co-workers where venturing more an 50 or so yards from the house can end up in real fines! Take care everyone .... and if you can't walk far from your home perhaps try gardening, or some other close-to-home activity that focuses your attention intently in one place.
Believe it or not, I started considering to do the yard work ... and I hate yard work! But, it needs to be done, and gets me out of the house. :)
Work-life balance is important ... especially for tech workers, it is far too easy to just immerse yourself 24x7 into computer work, and that will lead to burnout.
Maybe if you have to remain indoors and need something to do .... write an article for opensource.com!
Thanks.... I'm looking at some of the process and meeting structure tips you had to share.
I also find it very important to maintain regular and predictable habits, processes and rule that help one rely on a structure to help them get through the day.
I knew nothing about OpoenProject ... looks nice I am going to check it out!
