Hi all! I'm dipping my toe into contributing to the development of Ubuntu. I read that this was the best team to join for interested developers, so here I am!
It's a bit overwhelming for someone new to OSS development, so I have a few questions. Per a previous email, I'm trying to pick out a bug to fix in Nautilus from this list <https://launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/raring>. However, upon reading through some of these, it appears that: 1. A lot of these require some sort of design decision to be made. E.g.: Here's a bug<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/48671> where the user is requesting for the ability to rename a file by clicking on the name 2x. Who makes that decision? 2. How does the whole upstream process work? Do we write a patch and then submit it to the corresponding project? Since I'm going off of Ubuntu's bug tracker, how do I know I'm not working on something that someone else upstream is working on? Other than that, go team papercuts! :) - Kate
