The development team is here to help new users learn application design, programming concepts, get acclimated to working in a team, contributing parts to create a whole. Additionally a familiarity with Version Control Systems(VCS) is important in Open Source development. Development FG members must demonstrate an aptitude with Subversion (svn) and Bazaar (bzr). We teach any language that we collectively know.
Our IRC channel is #ubuntu-beginners-dev on Freenode (irc.freenode.net). Our Launchpad project is located here. All members are requested to subscribe to our mailing list, which is also on our Launchpad page.
Objectives
