Ubuntu One Servers

how can I get invite status information?

Asked by Ivan Zorin

Hello. I have a few questions about getting invite procedure.
I've requested it already one day ago (but haven't got it yet), so I would like to know:

- how much time can take for making the decision to send or not to send invite for user?
- which exactly criterias have an influence on decision - this is launchpad karma/activity, or something like that?
- how user can increase chances for getting invite?
- if user's request has been rejected, then he has been noticed about it, via email, right?
- each user, which has requested invite, will get it, sooner or later, or won't?
- does exist some way for re- requesting invite (if something goes wrong, for example, if request wasn't processing correctly)?

So, I will be very appreciate for any useful information about this.

Hello Ivan,

I'm so glad you want to try out Ubuntu One! The only criteria for getting an invite is whether or not we have started up some more servers to deal with the number of users. It doesn't matter whether you have any karma at all, we're just adding users a few at a time so we can monitor the load on the overall system and be sure that it performs well.

Your invitation request won't be rejected, we've just had a bit of a delay as all the engineers are currently in spain preparing for UDS. Thanks for your patience, we'll try to get you an invitation very soon.
