[Ahmed Shams <ahmedkhattabshams@xxxxxxxxx>]

SA,
Here's a brain dump of some issues with our new structure.
@Toulan: Would you please participate in this.
Sorry for multi-color/format.
*
First: About Council:*
*Elections:*
* Who can be Nominated to join the council?*
  A) Any member of ~ubuntu-eg
  B) Official members of Ubutnu-EG(Membership can be granted through
preparing application > meeting > Approval or refusal)
  C) Any member of any of the Focus Groups(Sub-teams)
  D) Council members are a combination of elected Admins of all FGs.

* When Elections should take place each release?(If it will happen each
release!)*
  A) A Week before each upcoming release.
  B) A Week after each release.
  C) A Week After the release party.(Release party can take place any time
during the month after the release date).

* Where to Elect?(Where to create polls to choose council team members)*
  A) On launchpad polls.
  B) Outside Launchpad.

===============
*Second: About Focus Groups:*
A Focus Group is a sub-team of ~ubuntu-eg that will focus on a specific job
locally.
* Suggested Focus Groups:*(Do you oppose any of these?)
  A)*Support.*(to give support though all of our means)
  B)*Spokespersons.*(It's a workaround, instead of having a council member
in each spot(i.e. Alex), it has a spokesperson who is trustworthy and
experienced enough to maintain and build a new spot there. one spot can
have many spokespersons). It'll help having many hands to help with
maintaining a community(or a spot), because number of council members
should be limited, but spokespersons not.
  C)*Marketing.*(to take what it takes for marketing issues, they will be
responsible for it)
  D)*Moderators.*(maintain all of our means, FB page and group, forum, IRC
channel, linkedin group, G+ page and so on...) responsible for keeping it's
environment welcoming, friendly and keep it with Ubuntu Code of Conduct.
  E)*Website Maintainers.*(To share efforts and challenges between many
persons with different minds and experiences).

* Who can join Focus Groups?*
  A) Anyone.
  B) Anyone with history in that specific job(to preserve quality) and
Activity on it.
*
 How can people join an FG?*
  A) By Preparing application > Meeting > Approval/refusal.
  B) By Preparing application(on wiki) > send introduction(of himself) to
that FG's mailinglist > older members review application > Approval/Refusal
by council.
  C) Directly, without any approval process.

* Choosing Leaders for FGs?*
  A) Through Elections inside that FG.
  B) Through Elections, any ~ubuntu-eg member can vote.
  C) Designated by council.

* When leader choosing should happen?*
  A) A Week after council elections.
  B) A Week before council elections.

What should we do with all of these questions? ;(
