I am not a packager. I see myself as an upstream KDE developer with a strong interest in helping Kubuntu to succeed. As such almost all my contributions are either upstream KDE SC development or independent KDE applications.

  * Created dbusmenu-qt, used by KStatusNotifierItems|!AppIndicators to present their menus on DBus, ensuring consistent menu rendering on GNOME and KDE
  * Currently working on a global menubar based on dbusmenu ([[http://agateau.wordpress.com/2010/05/10/getting-menus-out-of-application-windows/|Article on my blog about it]])		   * Get more involved in the development of Kubuntu specific tools. Not necessarily creating new ones myself ; rather helping out existing development by answering Qt/KDE development questions and polishing user interfaces.
  * Improve Kubuntu default configuration to ensure out-of-the-box-awesomeness :)
