I can understand wanting to establish a new team which deals with this specific area. It might be premature, given there is not yet a demand, but I'm not against it. However, it seems more appropriate for the TB to delegate and appoint such a team, rather than the CC, given this is technical work which is ultimately a part of Ubuntu. -- - mdz -- technical-board mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/technical-board
