Mark's selfless commitment over the years is impressive. The Ubuntu Podcast is one of the best things about the community and I for one am very grateful. Culture tends to reflect leadership, and the telegram channel is edifying and friendly, influenced in no small part by Mark's calm oversight without any hint of ego. Mark is a great asset to the community and membership is long overdue! -- [[LaunchpadHome:sbutcher]] <<DateTime(2020-12-16T09:22:03Z)>>

Mark is a fantastic ambassador for Ubuntu, not only through his significant contributions to Ubuntu Podcast over the years but also via the excellent work he has done as an OggCamp orgasniser and volunteer. Absolutely a worthy membership application that I whole heartedly endorse. -- [[LaunchpadHome:flexiondotorg]] <<DateTime(2020-12-17T10:02:40Z)>>

As a newbie to the Ubuntu community earlier in the year, I found the Ubuntu Podcast to be an invaluable resource as a lens into the open source community of distro development as well as general geekiness. Through Mark's role as podcast host I had been able to learn about various tools as well as the news of the week and represented to me what a more relatable way of understanding what open source in general represents. Mark deserves a long overdue Ubuntu membership for his long-serving roles in educating users new and old about Ubuntu and beyond -- [[LaunchpadHome:hayashiesme]] <<DateTime(2020-12-17T21:44:55+0800)>>

Mark has been an outstanding advocate for Ubuntu and OSS. He is a great representative of the community, his work on the Ubuntu Podcast has helped bring that community spirit to numerous people over the years. I am surprised that Mark is not already a member and endorse his application without reservation. -- [[LaunchpadHome:franksmcb]] <<DateTime(2020-12-17T10:02:14-0600)>>

Mark has been a good content creator who has helped inspire the community whether through presenting the Ubuntu Podcast or through helping organize OggCamp. The current membership application is one of those cases in which the application itself is long overdue. If anything it became assumed over time that Mark was already an Ubuntu Member. I wholeheartedly endorse the membership application without reservation. -- -- [[LaunchpadHome:skellat]] <<DateTime(2020-12-18T00:04:49-0500)>>

Mark does a good public relations job for Ubuntu with the Ubuntu Podcast. Every fortnight they have an extra community part in the podcast, which I really enjoy listening to. Through this long-standing success of the podcast, he has made a significant contribution to the success of Ubuntu. I highly recommend Mark's membership. -- [[LaunchpadHome:torsten.franz]] <<DateTime(2020-12-19T22:01:59+0200)>>

Mark is the best kind of community advocate, especially for people new to Ubuntu or Linux in general. As part of the Ubuntu Podcast, his down to earth, warm, and open approach encourages people to learn more, to ask questions, and to try things out! On the podcast's Telegram channel, he is equally approachable and helpful, and has always been graciously to answer any questions I've had, and I'm sure numerous others. He has my enthusiastic endorsement, without reservation or hesitation. -- [[LaunchpadHome:madhens]] <<DateTime(2020-12-20T23:51:07-0500)>>
