Plans

I work at Canonical, and have just moved to the Ubuntu Engineering team to work on their application developer programme. My mission there is to provide tools & systems to get more & better applications into Ubuntu.

First steps will involve focusing on improving the developer side of the Software Center, making it as easy as possible to go from "I have an app that works on Ubuntu" to "My app is in the Software Center".
