Any thoughts on this? I've moved the calendar entry to the last Tuesday,
and moved it an hour later because of a conflict with the Kernel Team
meeting.

The general feedback is that it's unusual to have the CC appointing new
members to teams (it's not what they do). So, suggested that we should
talk through our criteria and process for recruiting new members (maybe
based on what other teams are doing, and maybe pulling in some other
Ubuntu community members to the discussion), and then run the revised
process by the TB/CC for a sanity check.
