Getting involved with the Edubuntu community is easy


Community discussion and chat

We have an IRC channel on irc.freenode.net, called #edubuntu. This is our main channel where day to day conversations and support relating to Edubuntu take place.

Getting involved

We usually work on various aspects of edubuntu by joining specific launchpad teams. There are opportunities for all types of people, including coders, translators, graphics designers and copy writers.

Local Teams

After submitting your mail to Edubuntu-devel, we will add you to the Launchpad team you applied for. Your e-mail will be summarised in the Launchpad description field for the team.
