In either case, one needs a clear cut definition of what exactly
sponsored means and its benefits whilst making sure that the loco team
is sponsored by the ubuntu community in terms of the resources
provided to sponsored locoteams (i.e sponsored locoteams get x and y
stuff as a support (eg dvd's/cd's et al))

On the contrary verified also is good but it should not raise a point
in any of the locoteams as to LoCo council does not look at the
operations of unverified loco teams (which isn't btw) and should not
refrain anyone from reaching out to the LoCo council in case of any
issues.

Thanks for all your views and efforts to spread ubuntu!
