Because Launchpad is heavily used and critical for QA activities in Ubuntu it is important that Ubuntu QA is well represented to the Launchpad development and management teams.

Liaison:
one that establishes and maintains communication for mutual understanding and cooperation

The liaison's duties:

• Provide Launchpad developers with prioritized bugs/specs relevant to Ubuntu QA
• Provide Ubuntu QA with information on Launchpad changes and progress
• Drive discussion around needed Launchpad changes or possible bug fixes
• Advocate on behalf of Ubuntu QA to Launchpad developers and management
• Do the all of the above in as transparent and collaborative of a way as possible

Some useful liaison activities:

• Solicit Launchpad feedback on a specific change or Launchpad feature
• Solicit individual priority bugs affecting QA
• Consult Launchpad developers for possible future directions
