Yes. I was asked to volunteer by another member of Ubuntu. > > Why did you decide to get involved? Ubuntu has saved me many metaphorical tears, needing so much less maintenance than the usual alternative. As I am not a developer, this is just one of the ways that I can "give back" to the project. > > Did you have trouble getting started with the project? Were the > other team members helpful enough? No trouble getting started. The team members were plenty helpful, especially Hannie, who took me under her wing. > > How did you like your role (author, editor, translator, etc.) in > this cycle? Do you think you'd like to take on that same role again? My role is limited due to health issues, and the one I was given was perfect for my abilities. > > Did you find it difficult to use any of the tools for our project > (e.g., bzr, LaTeX)? As you know, I am trying to be a champion for Gummi, because it gives near-instant results on the screen, allowing an editor to instantly see what has worked and what has not. But also, as you know, I have struggled to find out how to get the Ubuntu-specific styles and tags into Gummi. I had a brief exchange with Gummi's developer, and apparently the next version of Gummi will support external styles. However, I still have not found who is in charge of Ubuntu's styles and tags in order to be able to put them into Gummi! No one here seems to know. Paddy
