(proposal items snipped.....) I respectfully disagree. We don't need another layer of governance, or another wiki page, or another irc channel, or another meeting for people to attend. We need to improve the communication between existing teams, build mentoring relationships, and co-operate on events. IMO, none of these things is helped by the ubuntu-us proposal. There are currently 28 US based teams, only 4 of those are approved. That is the problem, not a naming convention. LoCo's should be supported and strengthened wherever they spring up. The Code of Conduct and the conflict resolution process are strong enough to take care of the governance.
