| == My .plan ( a.k.a. "What I plan to do in 'universe^Wmain'") == === Overall === I hope to help bring Kubuntu upto the level of Polish and usability of its sibling Ubuntu. There are varying ideas about how this can be accomplished and following some of the spec's outlined in UDS Paris 2006 I feel that we can address the majority of those in the edgy time frame and have a realistic Goal of true Kubuntu "sibling" by edgy+1. Specifically I will be helping address these spec's from the Kubuntu point of View to help this happen : * https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/common-customizations * https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/adept-usability And Also the various "transitions" for KDE packages such as [https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuEdgyPackageUpdates libgamin0 transition] and the now Complete dh_iconcache Transition === Short(er) Term ( a.k.a Universe / Multiverse Work ) === * Continue to help Maintain KBFX in Ubuntu and Upstream;Upstream and also support it ( and other Kubuntu apps ) in IRC and the Forums * Continue to Maintain the apt-mirror package I helped bring to Ubuntu and work on getting it included into Debian proper * Continue to work on merges from Debian Unstable to Edgy Universe that pertain to KDE ( trying to give more love to the more un-popular KDE packages so a wide variety are upto date in universe ) * Follow the Debian BTS and Malone Bug Trackers Closely for Universe KDE packages and make sure they get the patches needed from Upstream and Upstream;Upstream in a timely manner === Long(er) Term ( a.k.a Main Work ) === * Continue work with Kopete * Continue Work with Amarok == About Me == Hello I'm a Freelance programmer by trade. I'm also a [https://launchpad.net/people/kubuntu-members member of kubuntu] and [https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-irc Ubuntu IRC Operators]. I love to do and try new things Esp. Computer related. I have been using one flavor of Linux or another for many years ( started somewhere around 97/98ish with Redhat 4.xx ) but have fell in love with the Ubuntu Community and specifically Kubuntu. |
