History

I got involved with the Ubuntu Community right before the Dapper Release, as I started to contribute with the Ubuntu Brazilian Portuguese Translators team.

On June 2nd we (together with three other friends) did the [http://wiki.ubuntubrasil.org/FestaDapperMaringa Maringa's Dapper Release Party], installing about 5 PC's, dristibuting 15 CDs and speaking to more than 50 people.

On July 6th I was accepted to the Ubuntu Brazilian Portuguese Translators team based on my translation efforts, becoming one of the administrators for the group shortly after.

On August 17th, for my suprise, I discovered that I was on the [https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+topcontributors Top Contributors] of Ubuntu on the Translations Area.
