Mainly L10n and regional issues: 1. suggestions to improvements for Launchpad/Rosetta and l10n process | 2. possibilities of supporting of locale/localization communities and locale sites | 3. possibilities of translating main pages at Ubuntu.com, Kubuntu.org and Ubuntu.org and their connection to locale sites (e.g. if it is better to have locale sites or provide rather the translated version of the official ones with links to local sites, forums and mailing lists) | 4. the importance of translation of ShipIt service and basic environment on DesktopCD (without need to downloading language packs from net)| 5. specifics of marketing strategy in non-english speaking countries). |

independent Ubuntu software R&D |
make things simple by automating tasks in GUI, my mission is to design attractive HIG compliant GUI software for making life in linux easy. My vision is to make Linux a premier desktop OS choice along with MacOSX and Windows Vista. I made, UbuntuLiveChatSupport, UbuntuCommonHooker, UbuntuCommercialSupport, UbuntuHomeBackup, SensibleIRCHandler, UbuntuWelcomeCenter, and counting.... I'm also researching for ways to optimize GNOME, OpenOffice.org, etc, through different ways, currently I'm using XML optimizations. I install Hoary in 300 computers, and planning to install dapper for 1000 computers in AMA Computer University. |
