Nio, I agree now is the time to get the conversation started; don't wait
until UOS. You should certainly plan on having a discussion at UOS, but
I would start the discussion now. You'll want to talk to the -desktop
folks as you are really asking about replacing a default application. I
would think feature parity amongst other things would be important to
them. Plus documentation changes, etc. The sooner you get notice to
everyone, the better chance you will have with this. Good luck!

Hi Nicholas,
In the Ubuntu Forums we are discussing tools for making USB boot drives,
that can replace the Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator, SDC, in the next LTS.
The number and severity of bugs in the SDC has made us start this
discussion.
I suggest that we have a session about making install media and making
it easier, particularly for beginners, to install Ubuntu (and the Ubuntu
family of operating systems).

Right now Unetbootin has the highest score in a poll, but the poll is
only one criterion for what to select. It is important to listen to
people who know several tools and can tell the difference between them
and to consider which tools are reliable as well as easy to use.
Best regards

The next UOS is coming, and it will be for an LTS. UOS is the Ubuntu
Online Summit we hold each cycle to talk about what's happening in
ubuntu. Now's a good time to think about what sessions would be helpful,
and to plan to attend.
Those of your who might be wondering what UOS is can also check out the
last summit and FAQ page:

Hi all,
I don't believe we had any objections to the dates put forward by
Daniel below, so lets set the following dates for the next Ubuntu
Online Summit (UOS):-
Tuesday November 3rd through Thursday November 5th, 14:00 to 20:00 UTC.
We'll begin setting up summit and launchpad this week.
https://launchpad.net/sprints/uos-1511
I'd recommend everyone starts giving some serious thought as to
sessions they want at UOS. It would be great to settle these nice and
early as our next cycle is an LTS, so I imagine we have a lot to
discuss! :)
Thanks everyone,
Al.

Hello,
the feedback for the last UOS was to bring it back in sync with Ubuntu's
release cycle again.
As Ubuntu 15.10 releases on 2015-10-22 and UOS is usually from Tue to
Thu, I'd like so suggest
2015-11-03 -- 2015-11-05
as the following week USA have Veterans Day (2015-11-11).
This would give everyone enough time to get over release day hangover
and we should also have opened the archive for the X cycle again.
Any objections?
If there are none, I'm going to announce this end of next week.
Thanks in advance.
Have a great day,
Daniel
