Hello all,

I am an Ubuntu user for a while (since 12.04). The system and the community
already gave me so much that I decided to give something back in 2015.
However, not being a power user, it has always been a difficult task. As I
am learning more about software development, I feel capable of doing other
technical stuff  - namely helping out triaging bug reports.

My goal is to keep learning about software development, programming and
packaging and this looks like a good opportunity for me to learn the basics
of bug reports, how people identify what needs fixing, network a little
(getting to know people is always helpful to find guidance if lost, or ask
for reviews when I can submit a patch) and contribute with something that
makes me feel part of the community. While doing so, I plan on investing
some time in educating myself how to code to, first, shift careers to
software development and, secondly, be able to be a key player in open
source projects - and namely Ubuntu.

I have followed the steps suggested in the wiki page and I'm not sure if
there is any other special requirement. Please let me know if there's
anything you need or some sort of test I need to perform before joining the
team.

Best regards,
Gustavo.
