FW: FireNinjaGAME | Introductions

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Welcome FireNinjaGame :-) I like your nickname.

If you haven't seen it check out the following pages;

Your first step is to join us and say hello and you've done that :-) 
Now, pick out what your interested in and dive in. Use the activities 
page on the wiki to help.

If your unsure were to start, testing a daily iso is a great first 
start. Follow the tutorial:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Walkthrough

 From there, look at dedicating a machine to testing the development 
release. You can install and update your machine as saucy is developed, 
and you can use it for testing as we track packages throughout the 
cycle. We call this cadence testing, and it kicks off in a couple weeks.

We can always use some more eyes reporting and confirming bug reports 
(as well as breaking things)! Welcome to the team.
