All the help is highly appreciated. Which pages from wiki did you read? Specific questions about what you couldn't understand will be helpful. And you can join IRC channel #ubuntu-motu on irc.freenode.net for getting help. Prerequisites 1. Lot of patience. 2. Lot of patience. :-) Start looking into small bugs. Find out how to fix them. You need to attach debdiff (to the bug) between the buggy package and the fixed package to get them uploaded. You may first start only with applications that interest you. You need to make a lot of sustained contribution before you can become MOTU. By the way with new archive organization, MOTU term will vanish soon. All the developers will be part of a single team called Ubuntu Developers. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArchiveReorganisation Onkar -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
