My plans and ideas for Ubuntu in the near and far future
At the moment I only have one plan for ubuntu, and I am already working on it.
My plan is to bridge gaps between other linux distros. Some people see ubuntu as a 'light hearted' linux distro. It is not, it is just more user-friendly than others, Gentoo seem to do this a bit, and I wish for everyone to understand that no distro is better than another, just different. I myself like the need of technical know-how to use Gentoo well, while I also like ubuntu for the warm-hearted community feel 
My contributions to Ubuntu
I was first introduced to ubuntu/linux by welp, a gentoo developer. He had ordered some free CD's and oblidged me with a few. I couldn't get things to work very well at first, but things soon became clear. Since then I have used nothing but ubuntu, and completely removed windows from my machine. I have been using it for about a year now, and find it the friendliest distro out there. I have been helping in the community properly for about 4 months.
I have contributed to ubuntu in a few different ways. I spend all my spare time in #ubuntu and #ubuntu-motu. Both helping out and learning whenever and wherever I can. I even got +u status on freenode, as I am eager to help in so many different aspects of ubuntu. I always follow the Code of Conduct when I help others.
At this point in time I have only dealt with one package, which is the 'tea text editor'. For that package I added a new .desktop file, edited the changelog and control file, before presenting my debdiff to my universe sponsor, LaserJock(Jordan Mantha), who I believe uploaded it to the repositories.
I also help out whenever I can on Launchpad, with looking at bug reports and answers, then adding my bug comments and answers into them.
