Onkar.. I know that some of you guys like aanjhan,parthan,karthik,soumyadip et al.are doing great work.. Its specifically aimed at newbies to help them start contributing.. I know that you guys are contributing under peer pressure at work and thats great.. I have also seen you giving answers in the forums/answer tracker thats great.. But its specifically aimed at students because we as students will not have any pressure or such sort of thing.. So I thought of this idea to make an open discussion on the IRC and have an idea pool created so as to larger chunk of the newbies/students can contribute actively P.S. For students: This is a generalised statement.. If anyone's contributing to ubuntu as a student, thats great.. and please dont make this a topic for flaming...:) -- Bhavani Shankar.R https://launchpad.net/~bhavi, a proud ubuntu community member.
