=== Want to apply for Ubuntu Membership? ===

=== New Local communities health check process ===

 

Bhavani Shankar writes on the LoCo Council blog about some changes

around how team approvals are handled. "Every team shall be known as a

LoCo team, teams that were previously known as an "Approved LoCo team"

shall be known as a "Verified LoCo team". New teams shall be a LoCo

team, teams do not have to be verified. The term ''Verified'' means

that a Launchpad team has been created, the team name conforms to the

correct naming standard, and the team contact has signed the Code of

Conduct."

=== Getting started with the Juju Local/LXC provider ===

 

Jorge O. Castro writes that "one of the coolest things" that Juju does

is deploy instances on a laptop via LXC containers using the same

cloud image used in Amazon, HP Cloud, Azure, or any other cloud--but

configured so that a production environment can be mirrored. Jorge

links to video of a charm school tutorial on how to use the local

provider.

library, and provides screenshots to illustrate the current screen

today."

this."
