Shipit and the LTS

[Stephen Michael Kellat]

At this point I must stress that **valid & reachable points of contact** must be shown on Launchpad as soon as possible for each and every LoCo team.  It is strongly preferred though not **yet** required that points of contact be subscribed to this mailing list.  The guidelines as shown on the wiki page Mike cites also note that teams must be approved to receive disc orders.  That has transitioned into having a Verification health check to the best of my understanding at the moment.

A quick check on the LoCo Portal at http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ shows that many teams would not meet the previous threshold to get discs.  I will raise this matter for discussion with my fellow members of the LoCo Council.  We're nowhere near even Alpha 1 let alone vUDS-1311 so this doesn't require crash/emergency consideration yet.
