Previous meeting discussions and decisions

Feb 13

  • Until launchpad sends out expiration emails, the CC secretary will take care of reminding people to renew Ubuntu membership. Members of teams that are member of the ubuntumembers team do not need to renew their membership, since they will still be members by inclusion.
  • The following people are nominated for positions on the community council. Voting starts on monday, feb 19 (if no technical issues delay this) and 3 out of these 5 people will join the community council. Colin Watson will step down from the council, making the number of council members six.
    • Daniel Holbach
    • Matthew East
    • Mike Basinger
    • Corey Burger
    • Jerome Gotangco
  • The members of the forums council pointed out that there may be conflicts of interest when Mike (who is also on the forums council) joins the community council. The current proposal to solve this, is that someone who is member of 2 councils cannot vot twice on the same matter and will have to recuse in the council that's higher up in the hierarchy. For example, Mike has to recuse on forums issues and Daniel will have to recuse on MOTU matters that are escalated to the community council.
  • Elizabeth Bevilacqua was added as administrator for the ubuntu-women team on launchpad to overcome the lack of administrators now that the current ones have not been around in a while. A mail was sent to the current administrators and if no reply to that mail is received within reasonable time, the sysadmins will take care of giving other members of the ubuntu-women team access to the ubuntu-women website.

  • The Venezuelan LoCoTeam is welcomed as official LoCoTeam

Feb 26

  • The Ohio US LoCoTeam is welcomed as official LoCoTeam

Mar 19

  • The IRC council is not yet approved by the Community Council. Mako and Mark gave their +1 but James had some concerns. Dennis will address these via e-mail.
  • Licensing of wiki content is still deadlocked. It was proposed that a new spec for the main wiki would be written.

The following candidates were approved as members, welcome aboard!
