Welcome and Introductions

Disclaimer

It is important to note that the Governance Sync Meetings have a clear goal to encourage communication and collaboration between various Ubuntu Governance bodies. The sync meetings are not created to gatekeep information, nor as a replacement for proper, established governance processes, voting and decision making.

Round table

  • This round table meeting was focused entirely on the recent infrastructure outages and instabilities. Matrix, Discourse, and Mailing lists were the main focuses of the discussion.
  • Members of the Ubuntu Communications Council would like to organize a chat with Canonical Platform Engineering and IS. This should be a discussion where needs and expectations are shared and each other’s needs and problems shared.

Get involved!

Ubuntu governance sync meetings take place every 2 months on the second Tuesday of January, March, May, July, September, November. There are two sessions, 3PM UTC and 10PM UTC, to best accommodate our global community. All are welcome to participate in the discussion here on the Ubuntu Discourse!
