Hi Folks,
I want to announce the latest changes in Ubuntu Brazil: new Council and new Members!
== New Council ==
We had changes in the previous Ubuntu Council, through an election that had three chosen candidates:
André Gondim
Fábio Nogueira
Laudeci Oliveira – Pretto
One, out of three, was re-elected, Fábio Nogueira.
In this process, every candidate listed his plans if elected, and the election consisted of three phases. In each phase, Brazilian official members voted, selecting one Council member per round. The first elected was André Gondim, followed by Fábio ogueira and then Laudeci Oliveira.
Very soon we intend to publish our ideas and what’s next to come.
== New Members ==
The Brazilian Community is happy to announce its two newest Ubuntu Members: Carlos “Coringão” Donizete and Ursula Junque, a.k.a. Ursinha.
Coringao is the owner of Ubuntu Games, he’s very active and helpful in Ubuntu Games and development of IUG (Instalador do Ubuntu Games).
Ursinha is an active member, helping with community support and the maintenance of Translations’s wiki. She is really helpful with new users at #ubuntu-br.
We are so proud of you. I say that in the name of the new Brazlian Council.
Welcome!
Hugs and Good Luck!
