I agree with Stefan. In my opinion, the description on the
UbuntuDevelopers wiki page [1], gives the impression that Ubuntu
Contributing Developers (which is what I assume Stefan is talking about)
are more like MOTUs than Ubuntu members. I think this description should
be reworded. An Ubuntu Contributing Developer is simply an Ubuntu
member, but the membership is granted by the MOTU Council instead of
regional membership councils. They have the same privileges as Ubuntu
members.
