Vision

I am using Linux for quite a while now. Ubuntu came to my attention primary because of the slogan "linux for human beings" and the [http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/philosophy philosophy] behind.

In my opinion every human being should have free access to knowledge. Ubuntu is on the path to accomplish this and I want to play a little role in this venture.

Maybe, if we all do a little for this world we can change it.
