I believe that 'a new era' is coming. In my school, loads of people are
making the change to linux. Although our school uses macs, technical
problems due to malconfigured networks give it a bad name. Windows also lost
respect by it 'wow' worthy vista. People are starting to see that linux is a
feasible solution. Many young people are contributing to the ever growing
open source linux society. More and more people that are contributing and
are members are becoming younger. My friend Nathan Handler is on the verge
of becoming MOTU and he is only 15! NO, not everyone is going to change to
linux. But the people that are... Oh boy, they will be gods with computers.
Not old fat men in their mother's basement, but teens that are starting to
see just how far the rabbit hole goes. A new age is approaching. One with
people that want to be recognized. One in which what you see is a tiny
fragment of what you can make it. Being the first bug, we should consider
the words of Mark Shuttleworth. We [the contributors] must work together. We
should not fight on small issues and not point fingers at other software
developers. Remember, "We have bigger fish to fry".

Advertising -- [Success]
Uniformity -- [Needs some work, we need more minds contributing and
collaborating]
IRC -- [The best way to help, there are loads of people in #ubuntu
irc.ubuntu.com that are willing to help, Even brand new users are eager to
share there experiences and how to fix some problems.]

Suggestions: Many people say they have bad experiences with linux. And to be
honest, i have had some too. BUT what I disagree with is them pronouncing it
'underdeveloped' or 'buggy'. There are computers that have problems with
linux. YET, we must not forget that there are computers that just work with
linux.

(maybe adding [in big letters] go to [a website that connects to freenode
and automatically joins #ubuntu] for help would benifit the expancion of
ubuntu)

Point being, lets give out construtive criticism, solid suggestions, and
mindblowing ideas!
and lets work towards implementing them...
