Review and consolidate the current education groups in launchpad
The education/edubuntu groups on launchpad urgently need attention. There are groups registered and administered by a (often inactive) individual, and many groups are necessary and require attention, or are un-necessary and require deletion.
See here for an overview:
https:/
See here for the action plan for this spec:
https:/
There are:
* groups with a duplicate purpose
* un-necessary groups
* necessary (but inactive) groups
The teams need to be:
* reviewed and seperated into groups:
* 1) Necessary team with no attention needed
* 2) Necessary team but attention needed
* 3) Un-necessary team needs deactivation
Once the teams have been organised the team members must be contacted to check if they still exist, and to check if they are still interested in contributing.
Suggestion:
* each group then should also have their own page on the ubuntu wiki page
* this page should reflect regular activities
There is little point to many fragmented and/or inactive groups, as new people join, and can get frustrated or disappointed by lack of interaction.
Less groups, less members, more meaningful activities would be a good target.
* Action:
-> de-activate group 3 teams emailing members explaining why
-> make sure Edubuntu Council is at least a team admin (preferably a team owner) of all group 2 groups
-> decline all new members to group 2 teams with an email explaining why and inviting them to re-join if interested
-> de-activate all members to group 2 teams that are no longer actively contributing with an email explaining why and inviting them to re-join if still interested

Whiteboard
Richard will work on this himself during the course of the week of UDS Boston.
There is no need to schedule a session ... if one is needed, it will be specifically requested.
What is the lowdown on this? Any progress? Ace
