In short, this means being actively > involved with and contributing to Ubuntu for some time (usually about > a development cycle, although it can be shorter for those with very > strong contributions). Spend time interacting with other members of > the community, and learn as much about how Ubuntu works and how it is > created as possible. Those with a specific interest in development > may find that the Masters of the Unseeded or the Bug Squad are good > places to start, if there is no other team with whom they have a > natural affinity.

Find > an area that interests you, and get to know the developers actively > working in that area. Start working on things that fit within your > area of interest, building both expertise with the work you have > selected and close relationships with others working in the same area. > For example, if you wish to be a server developer, start working to > fix bugs in packages in the server packageset, working closely with > the Ubuntu Server team. Alternately, if you wish to be a core > developer, start working to fix bugs in packages in the core > packageset, working closely with other core developers. Your goal in > this step is to become a peer to the other members of the relevant > team.

Clearly document your work in the areas > of interest. Be especially sure to provide links to work done > upstream (including in Debian) on packages in the target area, and any > work where you were one of several contributing to a single uploaded > revision, as the automated upload tracker in launchpad only reports > those packages for which you have sole changelog credit. Documenting > a few different types of work, or work in different parts of the > release cycle (where different choices were required) can help show a > broader understanding. The more specific you can be in every section > of your application, the better: for example, a future plan to ensure > Ubuntu provides the best possible turnkey PBX solution for the next > LTS will often receive more credence than a short listing of "more of > the same" for someone previously working on the VoIP stack, especially > if it includes some details. If you are working on blueprints, > listing your outstanding blueprint-related tasks here (with links) is > a great way to provide detail. When seeking endorsements for your > application, a good strategy is to ask anyone who suggests you should > apply to endorse your application, and ask anyone sponsoring your work > to endorse you (best to ask at the time they are sponsoring it). If > someone says they haven't seen enough of your work to endorse you, ask > them for a task or two: helping folk with their work is nearly > guaranteed to get you good endorsements. > > Step 4: Apply > Check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard for > upcoming meeting dates and times, and send a notification of your > application to the mailing list at least a week before the meeting you > wish to attend. Be prepared to answer a few questions: these are > usually related to your prior work, other information on your > application, or Ubuntu development policies and procedures. If your > application is deferred for some reason, contact the DMB members who > were not yet convinced, and ask them to help you develop a plan to > meet their expectations: many current Ubuntu Developers were deferred > at first pass, but it is a rare case that someone actively involved > was unable to complete the expectations within a few months, and for > some it is possible to address the outstanding issues in time for the > following meeting. > > Good luck.
