Summary:
Localization, bug reporting, advocacy

Detailed description:
I have been contributing directly to the GNOME Brazilian Localization team since before the release of 2.18.  
Prior to that I had been the lider for the Ubuntu Brazilian Localization Team.  Starting on October 2006 I 
noticed how the Brazilian translations from upstream were "stuck" on approx. 73% (UI) and decided to start a 
collaborative project between the 2 groups.  As the leader for the Ubuntu Brazilian Localization Team, I got 
all of our official members to start contributing directly to upstream (and not do their work via Rosetta), 
as well as brought in more people to help with the project.  When we launched 2.18, we had 100%!  One can say 
that I have been a strong GNOME advocate and am personally responsible for bringing in at least the last 
10-12 stable volunteers to the Brazilian GNOME group.

It is my goal to eventually earn a SVN account so that I can help the committers.
