The One Hundred Paper Cuts project exists to work on the little annoyances in Ubuntu. These bugs are normally considered too low priority for the developers of the apps in question, who already have more than enough to work on, and so the One Hundred Paper Cuts project comes along and picks them up. In each release cycle, the project aims to fix 100 of these little bugs and in doing so, give Ubuntu a layer of polish that is not typically found in other Linux distros.

Meetings

All the details of our meetings, including the agenda and minutes, can be found here, though quite why you would ever want to go there boggles the mind mince it's all incredibly boring stuff.

Events

There are many important events in the paper cut calendar, both participation in Ubuntu events and running our own little get-togethers. A full list of paper cut events can be found here.

When you are an active contributor to papercut triaging, you can be asked or ask to join the Papercutters team.
