Hello folks,

The Ubuntu project is pretty big and contains a lot of teams, one of
those is the Ubuntu Bug Triagers Team which is called the "Ubuntu
BugSquad", The BugSquad is the first point of contact for the bugs
reports filed about Ubuntu, the team keep track of current bugs and make
sure that major bugs do not go unnoticed by the developers, the members
of this team assign bugs to packages, ensure that the bug reports are
complete, find duplicates, recreate bugs, and forward bugs to their
upstream authors (when applicable), all these activities help bugs to
get fixed and subsequently to make Ubuntu even better.
