Xubuntu Development
Xubuntu [1] is a GNU / Linux based operating system that is built on the same software base as the popular Ubuntu Operating system. As with all free software projects it is maintained by teams of developers from all over the world, different background, experience levels.
With the Covid19 pandemic re-writing how we live, perhaps now is the time to get involved.
The main areas we would like help with include:-
- Artwork
- Development, including programming and packaging
- Documentation and Translation
- Marketing and Website
- Quality Assurance, including testing and bug triaging
All of these areas are vitally important, as it helps the developers identify problems and fix them. The more people who get involved with just testing and providing feedback, increases the hardware variety the system has been tested on.
To get involved please visit the developer area of the website [2] or join the e-mail discussion list [3].
The team(s) are currently developing documentation for Xubuntu so if you're interested please get in touch via [3].
Don't worry if you lack experience with this, the team can help, plus this is a great way to develop experience and learn. The team is using GoogleDocs to for development.
