Any of the developers would be quite helpful, and I think we should always strive to have at least one core Ensemble dev on this council. I'd suggest Jim Baker if he is interested, as he's been the core ensemble developer who has at least most recently focused on the example formulas. That said, I've received good ideas from all of the developers while working on formulas, so I'll reiterate, I think they'd all be excellent choices. -- technical-board mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/technical-board
