My .plan ( a.k.a. "What I plan to do in 'universe^Wmain'")
Overall
I hope to help bring Kubuntu upto the level of Polish and Useability of its sibling Ubuntu. There are varying ideas about how this can be accomplished and following some of the spec's outlined in UDS Paris 2006 I feel that we can address the majority of those in the edgy timeframe and have a realistic Goal of true Kubuntu "sibling'ness" by edgy+1. Specificly I will be helping address these spec's to help this happen :
Short(er) Term ( a.k.a Universe / Multiverse Work )
- Continue to help Maintain KBFX in Ubuntu and Upstream;Upstream and also support it ( and other Kubuntu apps ) in IRC and the Forums
- Continue to Maintain the apt-mirror package I helped bring to Ubuntu and work on getting it included into Debian Propper
- Continue to work on merges from Debian Unstable to Edgy Universe that pertain to KDE ( trying to give more love to the more un-popular KDE packages so a wide variety are upto date in universe )
Follow the Debian BTS and Malone Bug Trackers Closely for Universe KDE packages and make sure they get the patches needed from Upstream and Upstream;UpStream in a timely manner
Long(er) Term ( a.k.a Main Work )
- Continue work with Kopete
- Continue Work with Amarok

- Various misc wiki updates also for the CategoryMOTU cleanup
