[Ara Pulido <ara@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

On behalf of the canonical-hw-cert team [1], I would like to apply for
Bugcontrol membership for this team.

The packages that we are interested in triaging are:

 * linux*
 * compiz
 * unity
 * xorg*
 * xserver*
 * alsa*
 * ubiquity
 * debian-installer
 * checkbox
 * pulseaudio
 * pm-utils

This team is a restricted Canonical team, where all of its members are
part of the hardware certification team. The goal of this team is
testing Ubuntu under different hardware and certify it as working with
Ubuntu [2].

All of our members have signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct and future
members will be required to do that as well.

Marc Tardif (CCed) and I are already members of the bugcontrol and we
have several years of experience triaging Ubuntu bugs and following the
Ubuntu release processes. We will be the representatives of this team
and we will educate new members on Ubuntu Bug Control policies.

Reasons for the application:

On our daily jobs we test the development release of Ubuntu in the
hardware that we have in our lab. Most of this hardware has already been
certified with Ubuntu, so a failure in these tests usually is
discovering a regression in Ubuntu. We also test every SRU to make sure
that no regressions are introduced through updates.

We participate in the release meeting and also the biweekly SRU
meetings. We have been asked by the Release Manager several times to
follow bug procedures that may involve setting importance and/or
assigning bugs to certain teams. Not having permissions to do so is
blocking our work and may lead on the delay of important fixes into Ubuntu.

Thanks for considering our application.

Sincerely,
Ara Pulido.
