Apparently this was a requirement for being part of the LoCo before I took over as leader but was not enforced for some time.  I apologize for the curtness of the automatic message kicked out by Launchpad notifying that this had been done.  After over a month of stating that action would be taken to remove those who have not signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct and after over a month of urging members to clear up their signing status, action was regretfully taken.
