The MOTU Team and me

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

Time ago I heard something about the MOTU team, and I said: I should give it a go! :-) I attended a MOTU session during the Feisty Open Week, and dholbach told us about this world… an interesting challenge – I though.

Daniel inspired me to cross the red line and I started quickly with MOTU related tasks during the Gutsy Cycle; with Daniel as mentor and other guys who helped me, I did the following things:

Updates:
amsn (0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1)
evolution-sharp (0.14.0.1-0ubuntu1)
alleyoop (0.9.3-0ubuntu1)
∘ gnome-themes (2.20.0-0ubuntu1)
gproftpd (8.3.2-0ubuntu1)
nginx (0.5.26-0ubuntu1)

Sync requests:
ipod-sharp
rubrica

As you can see, I have to learn about merges… and Hardy Heron is waiting for them!

MOTU team is a very good place to learn how to work in teams, with people from different parts of the world and, of course, communication skills are the most important thing.

Thanks to everyone who supported me during the last release cycle. It was special because I felt as a real contributor! (Nowadays, I can reply the common phrase: Show me the code! ;-) )

From this week I’ll have more time to continue with my MOTU journey… BTW, as Efrain, I had a Master of The Universe long time ago … the Prince Adam:

Tomorrow we’ll have our first meeting (face to face ;-) ) called Junta Ubuntera. The idea is to talk about our project, share experiences, evaluate Ubuntu-cl activities and process, and of course, meet us. It will be a great event for Ubuntu-cl.

Why are you using (X,K)Ubuntu?

Monday, November 5th, 2007

I’m doing a research and I need some feedback. The main question is Why are you using (X,K)Ubuntu? but also you may give me some comments about the project, your participation with the Community and other related stuff.

Thanks in advance!

Updated:  I was talking about all Ubuntu flavors :-)
