-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'd like to announce some changes in the structure of the Italian Ubuntu community. A year and a half ago we set up quite a formal structure for the community, including a group of 4 members who represent the community and take general decisions about the direction of the community and assist with the integration and work of the various groups around the community. Since then, the Italian community has grown immensely and is really blooming well. But we have felt for some time that the formal structure, while it has set down a good base for the community to grow around (and it certainly has done that well) has felt a little bit rigid in terms of involving the whole community in its own direction. At the same time we felt it was important to keep the structure that has lead the team to grow so successfully.
So we've made a few changes to the structure of the group: 1. Until now the group of 4 of us who've guided the community has been named the "locoteam". This has caused some confusion in the international community, where "locoteam" is usually used to refer to the entirety of the national community, which in the case of the Italian community counts many thousands of users. So for that reason we're changing the name of the group from "locoteam" to "Italian Locoteam Council". 2. The group previously has coordinated its discussions on a private mailing list, but we're switching to a public forum in order to seek feedback from the whole of the community on discussions. We hope that this will also bring the community more up to date with everything that goes on around the community. It will still be possible to contact the Council privately if necessary by email. 3. We're increasing the group's size to 5 members, welcoming Milo Casagrande on board as representative of the documentation team.
