effie_jayx's Journey MOTU

This is where I put my MOTU WORK where my mouth is. Contributing to MOTU is very important for the Ubuntu community. I honestly say I have just played around with the tools (pbuilder and generating some debdiffs, some failure attempts to make some merges). I want to open up my process of becoming a MOTU and break it down to taks to complete per sessions. each session consists of 2 hours. two hours a day should get me somewhere.

I add a couple of lessons that I think will help me get going. Should you consider that I could spend a couple of more hours doing something MOTU for learning purposes, Add it. Together we will create a comprehensive road map to MOTUness.

I have joined [https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-motu-mentors the MOTU-mentors mailing list] and I am in the #ubuntu-motu channel. if ou wish to contact me or if you just want to wish me well.
