Very little is done anonymously in this project, unless you are using a pseudonym and want to be somewhat anonymous. There are various ways that contributions are tracked. If you look at my launchpad profile https://launchpad.net/~lyz you'll see under "Most Active In" that Xubuntu Website is #3 for me. If you work on documentation you get added to the credits file, ie: http://docs.xubuntu.org/1310/ln-idp359824.html If you're a developer, your name will be in changelogs, for example: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/x/xubuntu-meta/xubuntu-meta_2.175/changelog If you're doing testing, your name will show up on the tracker: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/testers This is all fair game for including on a resume, I sure do. -- Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph || Lyz || pleia2 http://www.princessleia.com -- xubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel
