Support

  • "Nicolas it's a friendly and helpful contributor, I had the chance to sponsor some of his uploads and either they were fine, or he quickly learned how to fix things up. I'm quite glad he decided to become a MOTU and I hope he'll be part of the team soon. He definitively deserves to be an Ubuntu member, way to go Nicolas!" -- CesareTirabassi DateTime(2008-01-10T20:39:240Z)
