As I see it, the "super-team" shows a higher level of potential than the other structures that I have seen so far.
For example, I can see this playing a big roll over time promoting & aiding with the growth of collaboration between the LoCo teams. Additionally (and please correct me if I'm wrong), but the "super-team" structure will help to simplify & organize the contributions from different LoCo teams and cross-LoCo groups. For whatever it's worth, I give the proposal a thumbs up! 2011/7/19 Leandro Gómez <[email protected]> > On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 8:29 AM, Chris Johnston > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> 2011/7/19 Leandro Gómez <[email protected]>: >> > Re Spanish speaking LoCos: >> > We already have a similar setup on Launchpad (since 2007) with the >> Ubuntu >> > Spanish LoCo Team & Ubuntu-es Team.
