[CoLoCo] UBUNTU SURVIVAL : SAVE THY SELF

[David Overcash]

I'd suggest you two hang out in the #ubuntu-motu channel and see if someone
there likes your idea...  another good place to find help would be in
#ubuntu-us.  I personally don't have any spare free time to undertake this
project, but those two places should at least be of some help.
