As an IT consultant I've been able to contribute more to Ubuntu than any distribution or project before. I can submit bugs, create patches, provide user help and participate with a very low entry point. I can become a member of a team Over the years I've contributed to other projects, but never felt that it was noticed - I'm not talking about a thank-you, just that when you made a contribution, it was picked up, looked at, critiqued and used where appropriate. Ubuntu does this better than any other group of people I know. -- Onno Benschop Connected via Optus B3 at S31°54'06" - E115°50'39" (Yokine, WA) -- ()/)/)() ..ASCII for Onno.. |>>? ..EBCDIC for Onno.. --- -. -. --- ..Morse for Onno..
