60 seconds of searching through Google reveals step-by-step processes for each of a number of different teams... * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/GettingStarted * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/GettingInvolved * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/GettingInvolved * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/GettingStarted * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing#How%20do%20I%20get%20involved? There are *so* many avenues to getting involved with Ubuntu it's perhaps overwhelming. I suggest picking one of those teams above (or one of many others), and trying to find your niche. -- :-Dustin Dustin Kirkland Ubuntu Core Developer -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
