Greetings everyone ;-)
The Qatar loco team is starting up, which is wonderful to see ubuntu
loco's continuing to spread. However, this means in order for the loco
naming standard to continue, we must give up this mailing list name.
Never fear, our archives and subscriptions will be migrated to the new
list, but we need a new name.
Since I happened to be at UDS with some of you, I took a moment to poll
the room. The two immediate ideas are
ubuntu-quality and ubuntu-testing. Ubuntu-testing was an obvious choice
to keep the naming conventions of the launchpad team and irc channel the
same. That said I preferred, as did everyone else, ubuntu-quality. So
given the time sensitive nature of the request (it needs to happen
ASAP), I'll leave this message open for feedback overnight. Assuming no
one has a convincing argument or complaint, we'll move forward with the
change to ubuntu-quality for a mailing list name.
This change will happen ASAP for the mailing list. Given the desire to
keep things consistent, people seemed in agreement to undergo a full
re-naming. This will require changing all of our documentation,
migrating our IRC channel, migrating our launchpad team, etc, etc. Now
taking volunteers for this effort :-p It won't be as bad as it sounds,
but will require work and timing on our part to accomplish asap.
Thanks everyone!
Nicholas
