Indeed. In the membership board sessions I've seen (and taken part in) it's been the case that developers have actually been rejected more than non-developers. For the EMEA board we tend to push developers towards the MOTU route, and instead tend to approve members based on non-development activities. Whether that's testing, bug triage, artwork, documentation, support or whatever, we're very open to non-developers. I'm also keen to know how we can resolve issues relating to the perception of Ubuntu membership.
