Hey there!
I'm Sebastien Bacher, member of the Ubuntu Desktop Team and working for
Canonical since 2004. I'm also an Ubuntu Archive members since 2007 and
joined the DMB this year.
I do care about Ubuntu as a project, and not only the desktop part,
which is why I try to help things moving by being active on the dev
channels (IRC, lists, discourse), sponsor uploads (to Ubuntu and to
Debian), keep an eye on launchpad reports to direct reporters to the
right place and toward a resolution of the issues if possible, try to
lower our packages delta with Debian, etc. I'm also trying to push for
us to communicate better and it a way which is accessible to everyone.
I've been around for long time and I think I know Ubuntu, our community
and our upstreams well enough to represent the project interests as a
member of the board.
I would like to help ensuring that the project keeps being welcoming and
interesting to everyone by providing the right infrastructure and
processes and by helping us to set the right technical decisions.
Cheers,
Sebastien Bacher

Hi everyone,
We have received some applications for the new election of the Ubuntu

candidates. In order to make a good decision in this selection, we
would like to give the candidates the opportunity to introduce
themselves here and to say a few words about their application and
provide a few links to their work. Everyone will also have the
opportunity to ask the candidates questions. We will start the
election on 6 December. All five seats (besides Mark) will be filled.
Here is the list of candidates (by alphabetical order of surname):

If any questions arise, then the Ubuntu Community Council is available

WE ARE STILL LOOKING FOR CANDIDATES TO JOIN THE UBUNTU TECHNICAL
BOARD!
The call remains open until NOVEMBER 27TH, 2022, at 23:59 UTC. This is
a bit longer than initially anticipated.
Are you interested or do you know of someone who you want to see in
this role? Please submit the nomination.
WHAT IS THE UBUNTU TECHNICAL BOARD?
The Ubuntu Technical Board is responsible for the technical direction
of Ubuntu. It makes decisions on package selection, packaging policy,
installation systems and processes, kernel, X server, display
management, library versions, and dependencies. The board works with
relevant teams to establish a consensus on the right path to take,
especially where diverse elements of Ubuntu cannot find consensus on
shared components. The current Technical Board is expiring at the end
of the year, and the Community Council would like to confirm a new
Technical Board, consisting of five people, who will serve for two
years. The eligibility requirements are:
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
Everyone who meets the following criteria:
* Be an Ubuntu Core Developer
* Be available during typical meeting hours [see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda [1]]
* Have insight into the Ubuntu Development process, architecture,
and
technical culture
HOW DO YOU NOMINATE YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE?
Send the Community Council an email (community-council AT
lists.ubuntu.com [2]). With your nomination. Note that you can
nominate yourself too!
HOW DOES THE ELECTION WORK?
The call remains open until November 27th, 2022, at 23:59 UTC. After
that, the Community Council will review the submissions, submit them
to Mark Shuttleworth for shortlisting, and proceed with a vote by the
Ubuntu Development team.
