Hello, first of all: thanks for this discussion. Having been involved in long debates about the process the MOTU Council used, I think it's good to go back and see how well we are doing.

I feel that applications of Canonical employees shouldn't be treated differently than those from non-Canonical contributors. All expectations and consequences are the same as far as I can see. Everybody - wants to avoid being rejected - wants a quick decision - can still get patches uploaded if they don't have upload rights yet The obvious advantage which Canonical employees have is that they have team mates who can (and often are expected to) help them learn and get their work integrated. Also should it be easier for them to learn from team mates more quickly. I'm not sure though if this is in any way a relevant criterion for the DMB.
