As I see it, the "super-team" shows a higher level of potential than the other structures that I have seen so far.<br><br>For example, I can see this playing a big roll over time promoting & aiding with the growth of collaboration between the LoCo teams. Additionally (and please correct me if I'm wrong), but the "super-team" structure will help to simplify & organize the contributions from different LoCo teams and cross-LoCo groups.<br>
<br>For whatever it's worth, I give the proposal a thumbs up!<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/7/19 Leandro Gómez <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:leo.telsen@gmail.com">leo.telsen@gmail.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

</div>The part that is broken is when a Local Community Team is trying to<br>
encompass the entire world.. I.e. language teams.. If language teams<br>
don't work, thats fine. But the LoCo Directory is not setup to support<br>
a language team. It does nothing for a language team. As I put in my<br>
last email, LoCo Teams are designed to be by region, and not by<br>
language. The suggestion made initially was purely a suggestion on a<br>
way to collaborate resources between LoCo Teams that speak the same<br>
language. As good as #ubuntu-es is, and then having the Spanish<br>
Classroom, doing events like User Days, (trust me when I say I know<br>
that it is good, having helped them out and seen them in action)</blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>i know. I've been there since day one.</div><div class="im"><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
I<br>
can't see why that isn't utilized by the entire Spanish community<br>
across the planet. Maybe whoever runs the Spanish resources should<br>
reach out to the other Spanish speaking teams and offer to<br>
collaborate, I don't know.<br>

<div><br></div><div>The thing is that we didn't create a new structure in first place. We did it when we felt there was a need for it, not before.</div><div class="im"><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
