Well, It’s been 3 years almost since I began my journey to become one. Along the way I have learned that it is not a matter of becoming, it is a matter of contributing to Universe. People on and off say that they want to become a MOTU but it is only with our actions that things take meaning.
I would like to express that even though I haven’t been writing much on the wiki. I have been trying to learn more and more every day. Since I began I have met some inspiring people that really motivate me to go forward. however I have been a little sidetracked 
. Here are some of the things I have done but not documented:
- Packaged something from scratch: I managed to package Turpial for Ubuntu. I ran into the oportunity to do something meaningful for the Venezuelan Community. Package a piece of software that is made in Venezuela. I am proud of the owrk done in Turpial and I am honored to have the oportunity to package it for Ubuntu. I have contacted the debian maintainer who is preparing the debian package and I have offered my help in finishing details.
- I am now using PPA’s: distributing Turpial in a ppa has been a great experience. I think it is a very cool thing to count on and It has given me an easy way to distribute Turpial.
- I have done some minor patch testing and I am looking to help out some more this cycle. there are some things I have learned about patching that I am sure will come in handy for many. and there is also a great initiative that makes this a great chance to contribute
I am more confident using and setting up my ubuntu dev tools every computer I get my hands on. I have decided to Move my progress to my blog, So stay tunned for by-weekly MOTU Journey Updates from this little fella.

Good work dude, I’m planning to write a review about turpial on my site when it becomes stable. Right-now, it’s crashing while closing. I’ll include information about you & your PPA on that review. Good luck dude, already I recommended turpial to many of ubuntu friends. They are glad to use it, all of us are looking for stable & lists support. Hope you people include that in near future. Thank you.
Oh i’m going to really look forward to reading these updates – and good luck too! You sound super committed which means you’re more than half the way there
Thanks for the support,
Contributing to Universe makes you feel good, it’s when you give back and the fulll circle sensation is awesome.
Stay tunedr
