= Administrative Matter: Temporary resolution: Endorse Emmet's voting
summary in the interim pending TB feedback =
Agree that our current voting procedure is as described by Emmet via e-mail
(ref:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2011-July/000956.html).

AGREED: Current DMB voting procedure is as described at
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2011-July/000956.html
= Ubuntu Contributing Developer Application: Juan Negron =
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JuanNegron/UbuntuContributingDeveloper
Final result is 0 for, 2 against. 4 abstained. Total: -2
Application deferred; remedial advice provided by the board to the
candidate.
ACTION: Board to review how applicants who've mostly contributed to upstream
projects that are highly symbiotic with Ubuntu (e.g. Ensemble and Orchestra)
are considered. The current consensus is that although this contributions
can be used to satisfy certain tests applied by the board to determine level
of skill, it is not clear if it is appropriate to use it to satisfy the test
of sustained and significant *development* contribution to Ubuntu
(especially versus the less specific test of sustained and significant
contribution to Ubuntu applied by the Regional Membership Boards). In
previous applications to the DMB and Regional Membership Boards, significant
contributions to upstream projects exclusively but not to Ubuntu
specifically have not been deemed satisfactory. Some members of the board
suspect that this applicant would have been more successful if Juan had
applied for PPU for the ensemble related packages he works on or for Ubuntu
membership from his applicable Regional Membership Board.
= PerPackageUploader Application: Gerfried Fuchs =
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GerfriedFuchs/DeveloperApplication
Applicant requests per-package upload permissions for the following
packages:
- beep
- irssi
- logcheck
Iain Lane provided vote on application via e-mail.
Final result is 7 for, 0 against. 0 abstained. Total: 7
Application accepted; ACTION to grant applicant approved upload permissions.
= MOTU Application: Andrea Veri (Renewal) =
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AndreaVeri
Applicant requests renewal of their MOTU membership one year after its
expiry.
Final result is 6 for, 0 against. 0 abstained. Total: 6
Application accepted; ACTION to grant applicant approved membership.
Cheers,
