Then around a year later I switched to Ubuntu Feisty.<
> After having packaged new upstream versions of several applications for a few friends and myself, I started contributing to Ubuntu in 2009.<
> In May 2010 I have become a Kubuntu member. == Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of == * Firefox KDE integration I worked on getting the Firefox KDE integration from openSUSE into Ubuntu.<
> This includes [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494067|preparing the patches]] for Firefox, packaging [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kmozillahelper|kmozillahelper]] and [[http://gitorious.org/firefox-kde-opensuse/firefox-kde-opensuse/merge_requests/1|fixing a few bugs]] upstream. * KDE bugfixing in lucid At the end of the lucid development cycle I fixed several bugs in the kdebase-workspace package which all went upstream:<
> [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/4:4.4.2-0ubuntu9]]<
> [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/4:4.4.2-0ubuntu10]]<
> [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/4:4.4.2-0ubuntu11]]<
> [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/4:4.4.2-0ubuntu12]] * Making multimedia keys work in KDE (pushed fix to [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde4libs/4:4.3.2-0ubuntu6|our package]] and [[http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=1060011|upstream]]). * I've [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-5ubuntu1|merged kdelibs]] (3.5) from Debian during this cycle and noticed a missing security fix in the process. * Applied a workaround (that can be dropped once Qt is properly modularized) to qt4-x11 so QtAssitant works correctly after QtWebkit has been split into an own package. == Areas of work == * Packaging new KDE SC releases * Maintaining various KDE related packages (especially qtcreator, amarok, synaptiks) * Full list of my [[https://launchpad.net/~debfx/+uploaded-packages|package uploads]] == Things I could do better == Remember to add an install file when converting single to multi binary packages. = Plans for the future = == General == * Push more of our packages to Debian (e.g. [[http://bugs.debian.org/609578|libindicate-qt]], [[http://bugs.debian.org/609575|kfritz]]). * I'll try to reduce the [[Kubuntu/ReducingDiskFootprint|cd image size]] so we have more space for useful applications and translations. * I plan to implement some feature in kdesudo (e.g. [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/696345|bug #696345]]) and to clean up the source code a bit. == What I like least in Kubuntu == Nothing specific I can think of right now. ---- = Comments = ''If you'd like to comment, but are not the applicant or a sponsor, do it here.
