I'm in favor of this. I can vouch for Yousuf's recent contributions and willingness to collaborate with the team and bring new options up for discussion. He's currently part of the website subteam and has been leading the charge on some weekly documentation updates with myself and Stephen (smkellat). We haven't added a new member in quite some time, so this is going to seem weird but... do we have a documented process for this? Thanks! Sean No, I don’t think there is anything very concrete beyond what is in the Strategy Document. We’re not delegated permission from the Ubuntu Membership Board in the way Kubuntu is to add people to the Ubuntu Members set on Launchpad. See https://launchpad.net/~ubuntumembers/+members#active As to the Strategy Document, see https://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/xsd.html Launchpad functionality changed slightly since that section was written. As long as the aspirant has an LP account and is a member of a sub team already then a vote of the council can be taken to decide on admitting the aspirant to the overall team. They’re the only ones who can do that on LP anyhow permissions-wise. As Xubuntu Council also owns the Xubuntu Documentation team on LP presently somebody either needs to add philipz85 to it so he gets out of pending or the team owner needs to change to somebody else temporarily for housekeeping to be done. The aspirant’s LP account was created 2013-12-31. I would recommend the aspirant additionally consider applying before an Ubuntu Membership Board as provided here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/NewMember Besides it looks like the boards haven’t met in five months as it is. We don’t want them falling into disuse. Unlike Community Council there are still people appointed to the Membership Board pool so I will help when the aspirant is ready to present them to that board.
