So Bravely step forward and volunteer for this most prominent role and enjoy the adulation you receive. Hi Dave, I would like to volunteer for the role. I have been looking for opportunities to get more involved in the Ubuntu world and feel this could be a great step forward. I have represented Ubuntu at a few events this year and actively promote it to all persons I come into contact with. My organisational and communication skills are excellent, stemming from my experience running societies in University, managing my own video projects and my current work as an Analyst / Developer / Deployer. I am currently on an experience year working for LogicaCMG as part of my studies (Computer Science at Manchester), therefore I have both the time and inclination for this role. I am an active member on the mailing list (especially the leaflets) and often make an appearance in the IRC room. For a personal reference I would refer you to the previous volunteer LoudMouthMan as we were fortunate enough to meet at PodCamp UK this year, and to Alan Cox who I helped run a stall on Software Freedom Day this year. As I am based in Central London I can also easily travel to any events necessary for Ubuntu communication. Thank you for considering me for the role, and I feel I should end on a joke. What's orange and sounds like a parrot? A carrot!

I've not been involved in the appointment of an individual to a position within a loco group before, so I'm a little unsure about how this works. I wondered perhaps if it'd take the place of a poll where people could register their interest, and where other members of the group could then vote for their preference. Personally, given my (short) experience of the individuals within the team, I would like to register my own vote for Alan Pope as loco contact. That is of course if Alan decides he'd like to do the job. Should this be the preferred method of appointment, I'd quite happily make a wiki page to allow members votes to be recorded.

SNIP Should this be the preferred method of appointment, I'd quite happily make a wiki page to allow members votes to be recorded. SNIP Chris the idea is that people put their own name forward and next sunday there will be a meeting at 9pm on the irc channel to decide. Would it be worth using the launchpad 'Poll' option, this has the added benefit of better accessibility and the selectable option of hiding the members vote.
