Rob Halsell (hôl sel) is an Operations Engineer for the Wikimedia Foundation.

I have worked for the Foundation since December 2006, I work with our technical team to maintain the servers and software that partly make Wikipedia possible. (I say partly, because servers and software are supporting Wikipedia, not making it possible.)

The best way to reach me is via email or in IRC (robwikimedia.org & robh on freenode respectively).
