Forum Council
An update from the Forums Council for April 2014
The Forum Council gave an update on where we stand with regard to the new process for nominating forum members for moderator positions.
With only 2 self nominations and 4 nominations put forward by the council, the overall feeling was for polling to be abandoned this time around with the 6 current nominees appointed to the moderation team. Learning points to be appraised and the process revisited for next time around.
Full logs can be found here. http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-meeting/2014/ubuntu-meeting.2014-04-06-20.01.log.html
