what exactly are you interested in working on (do you want to develop apps on ubuntu, do you rather want to work on packaging, do you want to fix bugs, etc)? the community team has created a nice little interactive guide for finding the documentation and contacts for right area of your interests at http://community.ubuntu.com/contribute/find-a-task/#!/toplevel/develop/null if you want to work directly on ubuntu i would also advise to get a launchpad account on launchpad.net, this is essential for any bug work (and for some ubuntu projects for submitting code) many of the more direct development conversations usually happen on IRC channels on irc.freenode.net. if you found your area of interest i'd recommed to lurk a little in the respective channels to get familiar with the team working on this specific part of ubuntu. welcome aboard :) ciao oli -- 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
