  39 4. Other questions : Ubuntu-be needs a structure and an organization
  40  
  41 As a first step towards a LoCo Team organization, we talked about a leading council and its mission statement. A project has been added in the wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/TeamOrganization. Feel free to read and comment the project.
  42 The issue will be examined in the next IRC meetings. The creation of a non-profit association is a different issue and is not at the agenda.
