At the beginning of a new development cycle, Ubuntu developers from around the world gather to help shape and scope the next release of Ubuntu. The summit is open to the public, but it is not a conference, exhibition or other audience-oriented event. Rather, it is an opportunity for Ubuntu developers — who usually collaborate online — to work together in person on specific tasks.

Small groups of developers will participate in short Forum and Workshop (formerly called “BoF”/Birds-of-a-Feather) sessions. This allow a single project is discussed and documented in a written specification. These specifications will be used for planning the new release of Ubuntu.

Today’s schedule and links to participate in the discussion via VOIP or simply listen in via an icecast stream can be found at http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/uds-intrepid/2008-05-19.

You can also find related blog posts, pictures, etc. on the Ubuntu Planet, Flicker, etc.

The EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) Ubuntu Membership Approval Board will be meeting on May 27th at 20:00 UTC to review and approve pending Ubuntu Member applicants.

What is Membership?

Membership of the Ubuntu community means recognition of a significant and sustained contribution to Ubuntu and the Ubuntu community. Contributions in all areas are welcome, from support to advocacy, from programming to artwork and documentation, from LoCoTeams activities to core packaging.

Membership entitles you to the following benefits:

  1. An @ubuntu.com e-mail alias that forwards to your real e-mail.
  2. An ubuntu/member/your_nick hostname IRC cloak on freenode
  3. The right to print business cards with the Ubuntu logo.
  4. Syndication on Planet Ubuntu of your Ubuntu blog or the Ubuntu category posts in your blog, if you have one.

Requirements

If you think your contributions have been significant and sustained, you can try to become a member. Generally, at least two months of visible, significant activity will be required.

The regular way to apply for membership is through the regional membership boards. Alternatively some Ubuntu teams can grant membership directly through their governance Council. Examples are the Kubuntu Council, the Edubuntu Council, and the MOTU Council.

In each case, you need to add your name to the agenda for the next meeting of the membership board for your region, or the team council, and prepare carefully according to the instructions below.

The regional membership boards hold meetings in the early evening in the relevant region. If this time is not convenient for you, you can attend a meeting of a membership board for one of the other regions.

More info…

The EMEA wiki page and agenda can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/RegionalBoards/EMEA.
