kubuntu-devel Digest, Vol 34, Issue 20

[William Egert]

Hey All,

I suppose I am in the same boat as Laurent.  I would like to start
contributing to my favorite OS :)
I know C++ and would eventually like to learn Python, but not exactly sure
how/where to get started.  I have been submitting bugs and trying to help
with triage but would like to also do more.  I think doing packaging could
be beneficial to everyone but really just want to help in any way I can.

So...Hi,
Bill (begert)
