Welcome, and hello!  I see you are somewhat of an old schooler as well, and if 
I am correct, my assumption would be that you are a KDE user :) as am I.

Sounds similar to me. I am into Executive Marketing, Business Management, and 
Entrepreneurship. Business is my passion as well.

Well as I am sure you are aware, there is so much you can do. Advocacy is 
probably #1 at this time. We are still somewhat wet behind the ears, but we 
continue to advance every day now. There is a great diversity of people on 
the team at this time and that is what makes working with it so great. We 
would love to have you contribute in anyway that you can. Advocating, handing 
out CDs, offering support if possible or pointing a person to an available 
support channel, or anything else you can think of. I am a horrible graphic 
artist and I haven't seen many "graphical" contributions from anyone in the 
group yet (except a few months back someone sent some really cool Ubuntu 
Chicago logos). If you have any marketing/design ideas that would make for a 
great flyer the help is always needed there as well.

Thanks James for contacting the list and showing interest in the team. You are 
more than welcome to stay around and be a member of a wonderful community. If 
you have any further questions, as I may have been pretty vague in this 
respones, please do not hesitate to contact the list. Thanks again James, and 
we look forward to hearing more :)
