U+1 members will sign and follow the Code of Conduct (http://www.ubuntu.com/project/aboutubuntu/conduct), being respectful and responsible in all of its Ubuntu-related activities.

Team membership

Any Ubuntu user may apply for a 1-year U+1 Team Membership. In order to do so, the user must: * Sign Ubuntu Code of Conduct and act according to it; * Provide valuable contributions to the team activities and discussions; * Engage productively into the team activities; * Be accepted by other members in a U+1 Team Meeting. Current members that attend to the meeting will vote for or against the membership application; italicObservation: U+1 activities require some degree of technical knowledge. Team memberships will not be granted to users that don't actively contribute to the team activities and/or that have no technical skills to assume a role in the team. For such cases, Ubuntu offers membership via other channels (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership).

Launchpad

The U+1 Team is registered at https://launchpad.net/~U+1. THis page lists general information about the team and it's members.

Mailing-List

The U+1 Team Mailing-List is hosted at U+1@lists.launchpad.net. It's not targeted at end-user support and used exclusively for U+1 members discussions and interaction with other teams and developers. It is a moderated list and it requires subscription (see https://launchpad;net/~U+1).

UbuntuForums

The Ubuntu+1 sub-forum at UbuntuForums.org is the main channel for end-user support. Using the forum for supports has some advantages, as it creates a searchable knowledge base, that can be accessed by other users (unlike IRC).

#U+1 IRC Channel

U+1 uses an IRC channel for it's internal management, discussions and events.
There's currently not enough resources to use the IRC channel for end-user support. The Ubuntu+1 sub-forum at UbuntuForums.org is the main end-user support media. The channel is registered and moderated, and hosted at irc.ubuntu.com at #U+1.
