Ubuntu announcements

Ben Collins announced regular meetings of the kernel team. "I invite anyone interested to attending, even if it's just to see how we get things done. Meetings are going to be held in the normal location: #ubuntu-meeting on irc.freenode.net. Meetings will be bi-weekly, Mon at 16:00 UTC, with the exception of the first meeting which is Wed Feb 21, at 16:00 UTC, due to holidays."

Martin Pitt looks at some policy decisions with regard to the package maintainer field. "a fair while ago, the Debian project collectively decided that Ubuntu source and binary packages should not carry Debian's maintainers in their Maintainer: field any more. Instead, we shall preserve them in the Original-Maintainer: field and put an Ubuntu specific contact into Maintainer:"

The Ubuntu archive team has added two new members. "We have also allocated archive team days, so if you need to have a package promoted, packages pushed through NEW or services the archive team offer, please contact the correct person on IRC (#ubuntu-devel being the most appropriate channel)."
