Hello Everyone, I hope you are doing well:

I am sending this email to you as my introduction to the team, my name 
is Edgardo Rios, I am 37 years old and live in Mexico (Monterrey, Nuevo 
Leon, Mexico).

Some years ago, back in 2001, it was the first time I tried to use a 
Linux based distro (Red Hat Linux 7.0), since then, I have had ups and 
downs on this path, falling at times to achieve the goal to use Linux 
all the time. Sadly, the most significant barrier is that all the 
companies I have had worked for, does not used Linux or Open source 
software. Anyway, I am not going to give up.

Right now, I am using Lubuntu, I have also tried Xubuntu, but because 
the computer does not have enough resources, I am getting a better user 
experience using Lubuntu. Although I have tried other distros, I feel in 
home using Ubuntu and/or its derivatives. Right now, I am looking for a 
new hardware to run Ubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME and Lubuntu in a multi-boot setup.

Although I am a self-sufficient user (only if Google keeps helping me), 
I would like to keep learning and supporting Ubuntu in order to be able 
to help others in the near future. At first, I would like to help people 
and schools in my community who does not have enough resources for new 
hardware. I am sure they can take advantage of Ubuntu and Open source in 
general.

Talking about this project, I can see that you created an amazing 
artwork (Wallpapers, Banners, etc.), do you know if those are also 
available in Spanish? I know there are tools to change that myself, but 
since I am not good using design tools, I prefer to ask for your help.

Thanks in advance for your time!

Regards.
Edgardo
