You have been a MOTU Hopeful for a while now, and would like to become a MOTU ?

Citing from ["MotuProcessesSpec"]:

• The process for becoming a MOTU works as follows:

  • After working a while with the MOTU community a MOTU hopeful will be encouraged to become MOTU by his sponsors or other members of the team.

    • A sponsor is somebody who uploads a package for you, when you don't have the privileges yet, the process is described here: ["SponsorshipProcess"]

  • The MOTU hopeful will write a mail to the public MOTU Council mailing list and CC his sponsors.

    • The list is motu-council@lists.ubuntu.com.

  • The council will have 12 days of time to check the references and reply back.

    • The applicant is encouraged to mention packages she/he maintains or specific uploads that were done quite well.

    • The Council will check Launchpad's /+packages page, talk to select team members and go with the information collected that way.

    • General guide lines for MOTU approval are to be found at UbuntuDevelopers.

  • The outcome of this will be presented to the TB, who will have the final say. The exchange with the TB happens via mail.

Once you are approved,

• read ["Uploads"] to know how to start making uploads.

• Consider joining [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-universe-sponsors ubuntu-universe-sponsors].

• Consider joining the [:MOTU/Mentoring:MOTU Mentors].
