[Ubuntu-US-CA] Best Practices Guidelines

[Grant Bowman]

Laura has some additional background about about the development of
the Best Practices Guidelines in her blog post.
http://www.lczajkowski.com/2010/05/30/loco-teams-best-practices-and-guidelines/
It includes ideas about (among other areas) delegation, increasing use
of the http://loco.ubuntu.com/ LoCo Directory especially as it's
features evolve, encouraging https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership ,
rotating the chair of the meetings and long term, mentorship within
the team.  I think our team is doing very well in a great number of
these areas.  The size and level of activity within our state
encourages us to work together toward our common goals.  What do you
think?

Cheers,
