[Ubuntu-US-CA] LoCo Approval

[Neal Bussett]

Howdy All,

As many of you are aware, we're in the process of taking the next big
step as a LoCo, applying to become an Approved Team[1].

I am happy to announce that today we submitted our application to the
LoCo Council for approval at their next meeting.

The meeting is this coming Tuesday, the 15th, at 1900UTC (which is noon
localtime).  The meeting will be held in #ubuntu-meeting on freenode,
and everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend to show them, to quote
Joe, how epic we are.

Also, while our approval application is mostly done (comments welcome!),
we're still looking for more pictures of the various events.  If you
have some that we don't, please speak up.

I hope to see many of you this coming Tuesday (at noon).

[1]: From https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoFAQ:
An approved team is a team that is fully up and running, has the
required resources set up and has met the approval of the Ubuntu
Community Council. As such, you can see approved teams as teams with a
proven track record. Non-approved teams are typically teams that are
still forming and if they continue to develop into a strong team, they
will get approved status too.
