I plan on helping Kubuntu in any way I can. I'll do this mostly by adopting threads in the forums, adding HowTo wikis, reporting (and help fixing) bugs, and helping with documentation. Another area I'd like to help in is eliminating the "last mile" of required CLI usage from within Kubuntu.

Eventually I'd like to become a KDE contributer, while still helping Kubuntu (the PREMIERE KDE distribution). Most likely I'll help with the Documentation team and KDE Artists (I'm not much of a hacker).
