It's a LoCo Team thing ( globally ). Every team needs a contact to the LoCo Council -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamContacts It's the person who talks with Canonical and the LoCo Council about the team. It's the "face" of the team to the wider community. With some teams, they are the bdfl. I hate taking the title of bdfl, so I tried to place other people in charge, so that when ( and if ) issues arise, they would be there to ensure I was not being heavy handed or anything like that. We need a "contact". We could always make a pseudo-person the contact, and his email be the [email protected] mailing list. > > Gilbert > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > Tag -- All programmers are playwrights, and all computers are lousy actors. #define sizeof(x) rand() :wq _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
