Hello! 

The Ubuntu Forums Staff are putting out a call for users of UF to apply for Ubuntu Membership via UF contributions.  We had become concerned that the process of applying for membership might seem a bit daunting for some who might otherwise apply, so we made some changes to the "Ubuntu Membership via Forums contributions" page and Irihapeti and matt_symes led the charge in producing a tutorial page for signing the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.  

Please have a look at the article on the Ubuntu Forums blog if you are interested.  You can start you membership application here.

Hey!  This may be your one and only chance to get a certificate signed by Mark Shuttleworth!
