About me

A simple vision of the Ubuntu Project

Ubuntu isn't just an efficient and high quality system, is a system that has a philosophy, what turns it so much atractive.

My plans and ideas for Ubuntu

My plans include translate all the Ubuntu to Portuguese, what i'm already executing. 'Cause i believe that everyone has the right to use the system in your native language. Work hardly in bugs fixes and packaging are in my plans, too.
