I looked at this again, and gave it a lot of thought.

I've tried not to be rash, or brash.

As far as I can tell, this is just a naming issue. I'm not sure re-naming teams is the best move right now, there has been a lot of really hard work historically on getting name recognition. This could also become an issue for stuff produced ( such as banners, posters, fliers )

I see your point, and I don't disagree. I just think it's a problem with a solution that's already been in place.

The only "critical" part of this is if teams are not being active on a low level. If a team is not active across more then one city, we'll ( LoCo Council ) will notice.

Now, for the forward looking part ( I hate looking to the past )

You do bring up something we've not addressed in a strict sense. I think a fair and equitable solution would be to write up guidelines on maintaining a city-level presence ( of course, depending on state / country -- Rhode Island in the USA hardly needs more then one group ;) ).

As for this bug, I think it's time to close it. I don't think we need this going forward, and I think it's just a terminology thing.

Please do email me, or the loco council, though. I would like for you to be involved with how you would like to see standards implemented.

Thanks for helping to make Ubuntu and the Ubuntu community a success
