Introduction

http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/8271/btlogo.gif

The Ubuntu Beginners Team was created to help new users have the best experience possible with Ubuntu. We help on the Absolute Beginner Talk area of the Ubuntu Forums. We are also on IRC answering questions in #ubuntu-beginners-help. We have many Focus Groups involved in many different parts of the community. You can navigate our wiki area using the header section at the top of this page. Feel free to poke around by reading our Mission Statement, checking out what our Focus Groups are up to, and learning about our team Structure.

If you are interested in contributing to the Beginners Team, see the Padawan Focus Group page. There you will find information on getting involved, finding us on IRC, and meeting the team.
