Kubuntu Tutorials Day

Kubuntu Tutorials Day

With KDE4 only a month away, now is the time to get involved in becoming a Kubuntu developer. We've set up these IRC sessions below to get you started.

Who's it for? Coders who want to get their apps and themes in the Kubuntu archives; learn about distributed revision control; get into KDE programming or just ask about us.

When is it? Thursday December 13th from 1500UTC

Where is it? On freenode IRC chat network in the #kubuntu-devel channel
