Introduction

Focus Groups exist to allow team members and prospective members to get more involved in the Ubuntu community. Whether you're an experienced Linux developer or an end user just getting started with Linux, there are many ways for you to participate in the Ubuntu community. If you are needing help or have questions, please contact a group leader and they will provide the best information that will benefit what you're looking for.

Prospective Members can participate and join Focus Groups. The only thing we ask is that you do not add your name to the launchpad group for that Focus Group until you are a full member of the team.
