It is an honour to work with Jack so that UbuntuKylin can be on track. He tries to learn a lot, and he's gaining quite a bit of experience. He is fully dedicated to his work on making Ubuntu available for all Chinese users. I sincerely promote him for Ubuntu Membership. -- smartboyhw 2013-09-10 11:03:28

I have been working closely with Jack Yu on UbuntuKylin project for nearly two months, and we had cooperated on the project much longer before that. He is very enthusiastic on pushing the project forward and have been doing a great job, and he is eager to make Ubuntu and open source software more usable for Chinese people. UbuntuKylin project is a recognized flavor of Ubuntu focuses on localized experience for China. Not liking other flavors that prompts certain technique (e.g. Kubuntu for KDE), it's basic goal is enhancing Ubuntu's experience for Chinese users. -- happyaron 2013-09-17 17:34:42

I've been doing some reviews/sponsoring for Jack this year, he's motivated and has been doing good work. Having him as an Ubuntu members makes sense, +1 from me there -- seb128
