[wp-ui] Hello all

[Ash Goodman]

Hi all,

My name is Ash Goodman and I have been working with wordpress off and on
since 2006. LAst year I tooka  decision with my web design business to focus
exclusively on wordpress. Most of my clients are not bloggers and are not
looking for any specific solution by name. What they want is a website that
is easy to manage. I have been working hard with wordpress to develop
something more user friendly and intuitive to use. I feel wordpress is an
amazing platform (or I wouldn't have focussed on it) but sadly the community
can be very elitist at times. I am hoping to get more involved in order to
contribute and learn. I am just scratching the surface of PHP but am old hat
at markup and CSS.

Ash
