 1. How can the community help?
  * The community are the main users of the currently supported devices so:
    * Knowing what is wrong (bug reports, see point 2)
    * Knowing what is right (ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net send a mail here the devs would love to know what you love)
    * Knowing images are working (Bug reports when the don't, see point 2)
    * Knowing if something is missing (Bug reports, please don't be dismayed if they get marked as wishlist lot to do, alternatively talking to the development team/creator of you favourite app about a port to Ubuntu is good too :) )
 1. What info do you need in bug reports?
  * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/BugReportInclusions lists the basics and the start for wifi and phone logs more to come.
  * Most packages are listed in the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Avengers Please look for a bug similar to yours before reporting a new one.

There are a lot of new terms, tools and procedures we want to use for Testing on Ubuntu Personal. This page is here to document those processes.
