IMHO contributing at the local community level should be the least
bureaucratic and easiest process in the community.


Hi Benjamin,

And it is the easiest way to contribute for lot of users in my community. They contribute to the localised ressources in their native language. They contribute with time, helping in the events where we are. They contribute organising events in their cities. Our small "core team" is just the link between the ressources (mostly ours) and everything in our country or in our websites.

All these invisible people don't care about what is the status of our loco, and only know about it when we have a reapproval because we communicate about this process. The approval/reapproval is a very good health check of what a loco is doing, to let everyone know (people inside and outside our loco, people who want to join) the actions realised so far, and the actions comming.

We don't do it to have CDs (it's just free goodies for one event), we don't do it to have a banner (it has a bad ubuntu.com english only link on it), we don't do it for the tablecloth (this one is the best gift we have received, it's sad we can't have/buy more…), we are doing it to keep the trust of our peers, to let them know we are doing our best and let us use the Ubuntu brand and ressources like an official ubuntu voice.

Sponsored don't show that. But perhap's I'm wrong somewhere.
