Also, make sure to be well prepared, otherwise the meetings will take too much time.

NOTE: Please add your wiki page to the meeting agenda at least 24 hours ahead of the meeting schedule so that there is time to review your application.

Warning /!\ The next 12:00 UTC meeting will be at Wednesday, August 22nd, 2012 at 12:00:00 UTC in #ubuntu-meeting on irc.freenode.net.

Guidelines for Ubuntu Membership Request.

Please read Ubuntu Membership before applying for membership consideration.

  • New candidates may be added to the bottom of the above table.
  • Only add yourself when you're sure you can make it to the next meeting.
  • The date at the end of the above table is the date you have added yourself to the membership candidate list, not the date of a meeting.
  • Add yourself to the list early, the board meetings usually take about an hour and if there are many applicants some may get postponed until the next meeting.

If you have questions or wish to give private testimonials email ubuntu-membership-boards@lists.ubuntu.com (your message may initially be held for moderation)

Candidates will NOT be considered if they have not Digitally Signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.

Team Reports

To see the outcome of previous meetings please head over to the Team Reports page.

Each Board should have an appointed secretary, who can vary as often as the board wishes, to carry out the following tasks:

  1. Coordinate meeting times and ensure that these are published on the Fridge calendar.
  2. Add successful membership candidates to the Launchpad group.

  3. Report successful membership candidates to the UbuntuWeeklyNews and add a short summary for each member (which should be taken from the candidate's personal wikipage).

If there is a contentious or disputed membership application, it can be referred to the CommunityCouncil.

The term length of members of the Membership Boards is 2 years.
