[Ubuntu-US-CA] Leadership election: Volunteer to coordinate needed
Hi everyone, Every year we poll the community to elect a new trio of leaders, it's that time of year again! We need a volunteer (or more) who is able to coordinate this election. Tasks involved: 1. Do a call for leadership nominations (here on the mailing list) 2. Collect nominations 3. Set up CIVS[0] poll for nominees and send out to members 4. Close poll and announce winners I'm happy to help anyone through this process (don't worry if you don't know what to write or have never heard of CIVS!). I just can't do it myself because I intend to run again.

[Ubuntu-US-CA] Project Ideas
For those not yet aware, the loco-contacts email list enables all Local Communities (LoCos) to collaborate. Each loco team contact must subscribe and other Loco team members are encouraged to subscribe and participate. Below are some ideas for projects I thought members of our team might want to consider as well.

LoCo Council has not formally considered this matter of creating a projects cookbook yet and has not formally discussed it with Canonical Community Team. That is okay, though. Svetlana is admirably taking the initiative. I encourage cooperation to help her at least gauge interest. Keeping replies on-list will help all of us learn as Points of Contact where we stand and allow for lateral community-to-community communication to take place. Ohio will be willing to act as one pilot test for this simply because Svetlana is located here. Who else would like to join in?
