One Hundred Papercuts/Mission

Papercuts are fast to fix, but annoying bugs. Our mission is to make Ubuntu shine by reducing them.

WHAT WE WANT TO GET

The Ubuntu experience to be a pleasure.

HOW WE WANT IT TO BE LIKE, IN DETAIL

Bug management to be agile and simple.
Have the impression the desktop is rock solid.
Feel that the Ubuntu desktop usage experience is the most pleasant of any operating system.
Give Ubuntu a playful feel.
Getting involved in Ubuntu development to be accessible for children.
Know that someone is caring.
Ubuntu to reflect the best of free software and modern computing.

IN WHICH MOMENTS WE APPROACH MORE THAN USUAL TO WHAT WE WANT

When we have clear why we are here.
When we focus in work rather than in planning.
When we hold communication to minimum.
When we write documentation in wiki to be simple over complete.
When it is discussed before.
When processes are under a well planning.

WHAT WE DO DIFFERENT UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES

We all focus in what we feel it's really important for all.
Instead of working hard, we create an ecosystem that works itself.
We quickly identify problems landing on the scope of the project.
We focus in getting work done.
We focus in things to be simple.
We complete our points of view with other's.
We forward actions to the right people.
We ask ourselves how much value the work been done is inducing.

WHAT WE THINK THAT MAKES US TO ACT THIS WAY

That our work is valuable to many people.
That we can experience the result on real life.
That work is what makes real feedback with reality.
That simplicity is what really makes you know you're doing right.
That all of us together are the greatest potential.
That working just in the most important thing is what makes commits easy.
That what we want is the true reference.

WHAT ELSE THINKS WHO IS SUCCESSFUL HERE

That people who created everything around you is not smarter than you.
That doing the kind of things that works, it does for everyone.
That trusting in the above is what is important.
That doing better is not about working harder, but to be able to get it right by working less.
That only the 20% of work that gets the 80% of worth is the really important one.
That you'll never get tired of working in something that makes sense to you.
That working in what you feel is of value is what will make you to distinguish, although you don't know why in the beginning.
That uncertainty is natural when taking targets never done before, and assuming it is the difference between who dreams about it and actually gets it.
That leadership is just taking work others are scared off.
That he isn't what he thinks or does: it just does it because he wants it.
That is natural that people rather believe in their points of view, because are these of what they will have always a better level of detail of.
That with simplicity comes beauty, and beauty reflects potential.
That everyone knows what knows, and doesn't know what doesn't know.
That all together know much more than a genius itself.
That trust is the greatest interpersonal prize, and transparency is what creates it.

Ubuntu meets One Hundred Papercuts

You don't need to take care of action,
rather to take care of what you wish.

Because a river cannot stay quiet having a cascade,
and you always get grass with a river ahead.
