My plans and ideas for Ubuntu

I see community support as one of the major differentiators between Ubuntu and other operating system, not a substitute for traditional support, but one of the key benefits. I therefore would like to help advance the coordination and foster innovation in the Ubuntu community support infrastructure. I see myself as being very capable of enabling support greatness in the community; This is what I want to continue to spend my time on.

Apart from the work of the people at AskUbuntu, I am very sceptical about the heath of the current community support infrastructure, and while actively working on the problem, I would like to do research to identify the causes and, hopefully, resolve them. I also would like to eventually start a Project to advance the use of Ubuntu in academia and science.

Testimonials

I've been working with Stefano on askubuntu.com this cycle. Though his excellent answers speak for themselves, I am more impressed with his ability to help others improve by doing the not-so-glamarous editing and retagging of questions and answers on the site in order to make it a valuable resources for everyone. I plan on mentoring him over the next coming months as we continue to work on the site. One thing I would recommend is to become more involved in other parts of the projects, perhaps a local team or something of that nature to help "round" you out. -- jorge 2010-12-07 16:15:17

As a moderator on Ask Ubuntu I've seen a wide variety of users from both helpful, to the less than helpful (troll-like). Stefano has offered both excellent questions and answers as well as participation both on the site and within the community chat. He consistently provides excellent and knowledgeable feedback on both the site and chat. His constant participation has helped our community grow. His knowledge of German and English have also assisted in the translation of LaunchPad projects, such as AptUrlRedirector -- MarcoCeppi
