Hellow

Participation in the Ubuntu Community

Summary

I try to generally help in the community: triaging bugs and answering questions on Launchpad, responding to posts and helping out on the forums, maintaining the wiki, among other things. I am also frequently on IRC providing support.

Team Involvement

Ubuntu Beginners Team

I am a active member of the Ubuntu Beginners Team. The Beginners Team (or BT for short) is focused upon assisting new Ubuntu users transition from Windows/Mac. We generally patrol the "Absolute Beginners Talk" forum, assisting where we can.

BT Development Focus Group

I am a member of the BT Development Focus Group (or FG for short). The Development FG focuses, obviously, upon development and programming. All that aside, I am mainly on IRC in our channel #ubuntu-beginners-dev providing general assistance to anyone alike.

Ubuntu Forums Unanswered Posts Team

I am a recently appointed leader of the Ubuntu Forums Unanswered Posts Team (known as UFUA or UA). The UA is focused upon replying to questions with no replies, so new users will not feel left out and/or that others do not care about their problems.

Georgia US LoCo

I am a member of the Georgia US LoCo. The Georgia LoCo focuses upon increasing usage of Ubuntu and Linux in general in the peach state. We host install fests and release parties, among other face-to-face meetings.
