= Overview =

There are more than 2,000 teams registered in Launchpad, covering activities as diverse as [https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-eo translating Ubuntu into Esperanto] and [https://edge.launchpad.net/~zope3-dev Zope 3 development].

Joining a team puts you in contact with others working towards a similar goal and gives you access to shared team resources. All you need to join most teams is an interest in the work they do.

= Learning more about a team =

Let's take a look at Ubuntu's [https://launchpad.net/~5-a-day 5 A Day] team.

||<style="text-align: center;">'''Ubuntu's 5 A Day team'''||

Straight away, you can see what this team's all about: each member agrees to solve five Ubuntu bugs per day. There's also a team logo (just like the [:YourAccount/Branding:mugshot] on your own profile page), an icon that shows up on your profile page and a summary of its membership and contact details.

||<style="text-align: center;">'''The 5 A Day team's summary'''||

= Membership policies =

The 5 A Day team has an open membership policy but that's just one of three policies Daniel, its creator, could have chosen:

 * '''Open:''' anyone can join.
 * '''Moderated:''' a team administrator must approve membership applications.
 * '''Restricted:''' you can't apply to join, only the team's administrators can add new members.
 
If a team is open or moderated, you can sign up using the ```Join this team``` button. When you apply to join, Launchpad will email you and the team's administrators.

If it is a moderated team, you'll also receive a second email once the administrators have chosen to accept or decline your application.

= Viewing a team's members =

You can take a look at who has already joined a team by viewing its membership list. This can be useful if you need to contact one of the team's administrators.

A more fun way of seeing who's in a team is its group photo!

||<tablestyle="font-size: 0.8em; width:30%; background:#F1F1ED; margin: 1em 1em 1em 0;" style="padding:0.5em;">attachment:5-a-day-team-photo.png||
||<style="text-align: center;">'''Team photo'''||

= Finding a team =

Finding a team is pretty straightforward: you can [https://edge.launchpad.net/people search for a team] and [https://edge.launchpad.net/people/+teamlist browse a list of all teams] in Launchpad.

{i} '''Quick tip:''' If you already know the team's name, you can visit it directly. For example: https://launchpad.net/~5-a-day

= Next step =

If there isn't yet a team in Launchpad that deals with the activity or community that interests you, you can [:Teams/CreatingAndRunning:create your own team].
