Overview
Before you start using Launchpad, you need to set up a Launchpad account. With your new Launchpad account, you'll be able to:
- show other people what work you do in Launchpad and earn karma
- join teams working on free software
- file, comment on, triage and solve bugs
- host and monitor code in Bazaar branches or CVS and Subversion repositories
- help translate software
- contribute ideas and specifications to free software projects, then track their progress
- ask for and offer help with free software
- build and host Ubuntu packages
- register your own project and make its binaries available for download.
Of course, you can pick and choose which parts of Launchpad interest you.
