MOTU Roadmap

INSERT INFO ABOUT MOTU MEMBERSHIP

Current Tasks

  • If you are brand new to Ubuntu development and need to install the development tool set, or are setting up a new development machine and need a step by step reminder on how to, check out the Ubuntu Dev Tools: Installation Quick Start

  • We have a list of programming projects that our team members are working on that are open to new members. Some offer tutoring.

  • If you are interested in Python, a popular development language in Ubuntu, see Quest for Python a resource of python tutorials as well as tips for setting up Gedit to program python.

  • Read the Packaging Guide. This will be a valuable source as you develop for Ubuntu. Particularly PackagingGuide/Recipes is a good start, as you get to play around with the tools a bit. To get a first impression, you also might want to check out the MOTU Videos

  • Become familiar with the Ubuntu Development overview, this will help you get an idea how the Ubuntu Development Process works. Definitely check out UbuntuDevelopment/KnowledgeBase for a good list of in-depth guides, tutorials and guidelines.

  • Check the Development Focus group Academy page for any current programming classes.

  • Another place to look for Package oriented classes is the Packaging/Training sessions in #ubuntu-classroom.

  • Work on bug fixes and new packages. This is where you should start once familiar with packaging and/or a particular programming language.

  • Request sponsor review of suggested changes, where sponsors:
    • review the packages prepared by the prospective developer
    • provide constructive feedback
    • upload the package when they are satisfied with its quality

    • for more information, please read SponsorshipProcess
