Welcome to Ubuntu Women!  I'm Svetlana, one of the Elected Leaders of
the team.  We have two projects that we are focusing on.  The first one
is a developer based one, which is called ProjectHarvest [1] and the
second is a (sort of) non-developer based one, which is called
Orientation Quiz [2].

Also, you could have local people that use Ubuntu in your area and these
people are part of a LoCo (Local Community)[3].

I hope you enjoy yourself in the Ubuntu Community.
