MainInclusionProcess
Introduction
Packages in Ubuntu main (and restricted) are officially maintained, supported and recommended by the Ubuntu project. Security updates are provided for them as necessary by Canonical, and Canonical's standard support services apply to these packages.
Therefore, special consideration is necessary before adding new packages to these components. The Ubuntu MIR Team reviews packages for promotion from universe to main.
That is the Main Inclusion Review => MIR
The process, its rules, templates that help to follow it more easily and discussions about changes to all of it are nowadays maintained under ubuntu-mir
