What do I do in Ubuntu?

• I'm working as a consultant in governmental sites in my country. We are planning to migrate (+/- 5000 workstations) of the MS Windows (c) to a linux distro. At this moment, ubuntu is the preferred linux distribution. Some work still needs to be done, however, I see ubuntu with good eyes for this migration. I am trying to join the two efforts: the necessity of my work with my contribution to the ubuntu community. I wait to help both.BR Ubuntu user since Dapper DrakeBR Same team member: BR

    • In the said process of migration above, all the authentication of the environment is made using smb or ldap (openldap). I have entered in this group to be able to argue my doubts and possible solutions.BR

MOTU Process

• Last week (just after my mariage =)) i contacted Mr. Daniel Holbach about the new MOTU's mentoring process and asked him to be my mentor, and for my happiness he accepted and sent me some programs for me to package. I've already packaged some of them, like the last version of gnome's music-applet (in python), libgnomedb latest version (i had to merge debian's jadetex to compile it). I already sent Mr. dholback all these packages and commentaries for analysis. After a new libgnomedb packaged version, il pack the new mergeant. I hope to succeed in this new journey, and thank Mr. Holbach for the support. BR

Testimonials

• DanielHolbach:

  • I reviewed a couple of patches of Fernando. He was quite active in the bughelper community, fixed bugs, wrote patches and participated in discussions. While his patches were not always perfect, he learnt a great deal along the way and made good progress. Some examples [https://bugs.launchpad.net/bughelper/+bug/79215 bug 79215] and [https://bugs.launchpad.net/bughelper/+bug/81370 bug 81370]. Thanks again for helping the team!

  • I also mentor Fernando to become a [:MOTU] soon. He merged jadetex, works on a music-applet and libgnomedb+mergeant update and is very eager to get things done.
