=== Asia-Oceania RMB Positions Available ===

The Asia-Oceania RMB is undergoing restaffing. We are expanding to run
two meetings to better accomodate our wide range of timezones. We
require nominations for one position available for meetings at 9:00 UTC
+-1hr and nominations for three positions available for meetings run at
1400 UTC +-1hr.

We have the following requirements for nominees:

 - be an Ubuntu member
 - be confident that you can judge contributions to various parts of our
community
 - be available during typical meeting times of the board in question
 - insight into the culture(s) and typical activities within a
geographic region covered by the board is a plus

Those sitting on membership boards are people who are insightful. They
are current Ubuntu Members with a proven track record of activity in the
community. They have shown themselves over time to be able to work well
with others and display the positive aspects of the Ubuntu Code of
Conduct. They should be people who can discern character and judge
contribution quality without emotion while engaging in an
interview/discussion that communicates interest, a welcoming atmosphere,
and which is marked by humanity, gentleness, and kindness. Even when
they must deny applications, they should do so in such a way that
applicants walk away with a sense of hopefulness and a desire to return
with a more complete application rather than feeling discouraged or
hurt.

If you wish to nominate someone, or yourself, send an email to ubuntu-
membership-board-asia-oceania@lists.ubuntu.com. Try to explain your
nomination. All nominations will be forwarded to the Community Council
who will make the final decision. Applications will close 1-NOV-2010. If
you require help or advice speak to a memeber of the board or your
friendly Community Council members.
