Dear fellow Ubuntu Developers,
In this UDS, we the ARB had a discussion on relax the existing
requirement of 3 votes from ARB members to get an app into the ubuntu
software center (USC) [1] to speed up the process of app reviews on
the ARB queue.
In short, the proposal is as follows:
Instead of requiring three +1s from ARB members, we will require one
technical +1 review from any Ubuntu Developer, and one compliance +1
review from an ARB member.
So any developer who is willing to help with the technical review of
apps (mostly a code and functionality review of apps) is welcome (the
current review guidelines are at [2])
We are also happy if any developer would like to adapt packages from
the queue and update on a regular basis. (Many apps are even fit to
make it to the universe repos or debian too. for instance: last year's
one of the app showdown winner picsaw [2])
If anyone is interested in this initiative and has any
doubts/questions regarding how to contribute, Please feel free to
reach us at [email protected] or #ubuntu-arb on

Dear fellow developers,
Any feedback is highly appreciated.
Regards,
What's the central place we go to to view the queue currently, and does
it reflect this change? It would be nice if I could see x apps waiting
on dev +1 and y apps waiting on ARB +1 and z apps waiting on both.
