Please find below the minutes of the MOTU Council "call" (held on IRC)
for 21st January 2010:

  * Pending term ends and future of the MC
   * Four of the seven members of MC have terms expiring by the end of the month
   * The DMB has not yet heard, or taken decision on
UbuntuSpec:community-lucid-motu
   * It would be difficult to hold an election for roles that are
currently undefined, and may have no meaning
   * In light of the current uncertainty, the MOTU Council has
resolved (4 votes in favour, 3 abstaining) to cease activities when
these terms expire.
   * If the DMB determines that there is a need for a MOTU Council,
and delegates the selection of membership in that MOTU Council to the
current MOTU Council, a new selection process will be undertaken to
fill the outstanding 4 seats.
  * Potential future (or lack thereof) of MOTU Council
   * To better inform the DMB in the decision process, the MOTU
Council will present arguments both for and against continuation of
MOTU Council
