About
I'm a freelance programmer living in Poland. I discovered Ubuntu when Warty was around and Linux in general a year before that. I'm mostly interested in i18n/l10n as well as improving Polish translations. I'm also interested in low-level glibc stuff like improving malloc but I've got nothing working yet.
Contributions
See my Launchpad profile for some generic karma http://launchpad.net/people/zkrynicki Please note that my karma was reset after the great crash, so a real estimate is about +4K
Also some i18n fixes for:
- update-manager
- upgrade-notifier
- gnome-system-tools
- (and many more)
I've created the ["MOTURuby"] team and hope to contribute with others (who ironically are way more experienced with Ruby than I am) to the quality of Ruby in Ubuntu.
I've created #ubuntu-translators and coordinate face-2-face problems with developers in real time 
I lurk on #launchpad, #ubuntu-devel and #ubuntu-motu and sometimes help with bugs or other minor issues.
Ideas
I've got a vision of a next generation l10n packaging system and I plan to implement it in the next six months before Dapper ships. I plan to integrate it with update-manager and somehow with apt system. I'm still polishing the rough edges in my head.
You can read more about my l10n idea here:

Why I want to become a member
I'd love to publish my progress reports and ideas on planet.ubuntu.com so that I reach broad public. I really believe that my ng-l10n idea is the future for all GNU/Linux distros out there but in order to get it right I need the experience and knowledge of others.
