If you read Mark's original mail, he speaks about giving the Art Council being delegated the ability to grant Ubuntu membership.

I think that some structure for the art team is good, but at the same time I also think that sometimes too much structure can prevent wide collaboration. It's just a question of getting the balance right :) Matt -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEvQhYtSaF0w5rBv8RAm3nAJkBy+OUIBUccHmrUc9bKhnvfBsPLgCghmZZ iE4V22ewQXniKepEUDU8nY4= =TBvn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
