Ubuntu Council and supporting Phil

Hi :)  
I liked the number of responses and all seemed to be from ideal people who would be great.  if we could get a number of people "trained up" in this (ideally around 6) and then settled on 2 or 3 to do the work i think that would be perfect.  

Apparently the current phrase is "peer-led training" when a number of people help each other learn but maybe get some direction from someone that does already know.  "User-led" or "grass-roots up" is now sneered at or unknown.  

If this team does take the work "in house" and regains control then perhaps it might be easier to ask the CC to do other stuff for this team, such as promoting/marketing the team and "raising the profile of" the team to help attract new volunteers?  I think that is what we need help with from the CC.  Is there a marketing team we could get help from or are they only about promoting Ubuntu itself?  

Regards from 
Tom :)
