There are 5 teams in the forums:


Archival - Resposible for the UDSF, headed by King Bahamut and Frodon. I am a sysadmin of the facility.
Green - responsible for the Absolute beginners section mainly.
Kubuntu - responsible for, obviously, the Kubuntu area.
Desktop - responsible for desktop issues
Hardware - responsible for hardware knowledge, compatability.


Then there is the forum staff, who moderate the whole forums, though often patrol certain sections.

There is also the 'official' Ubuntu teams -

This is:

Documentation , Headed by Matthew East.
Artwork
Masters Of the Universe (MOTU)
Development
Loco Teams
Marketing

The archival team take how-to's from the forums and post them to the Ubuntu Document Storage Facility (UDSF).

The Green team offer help and support in the Absolute beginners section

The Kubuntu team are there to lend support for Kubuntu.

The Desktop team help in the Desktop sub forum

The Hardware team (currently one member!) help with hardware issues.

Most forum team members are nothing more than voluntary tech support, people who might know that little bit more than others.

The other teams, part of the offical wider community:

Doc Team - maintain http://help.ubuntu.com

MOTU - Build Packages for the Universe Repositories

Development - Paid full time positions to actually develop Ubuntu.

Loco Teams work locally in your country to provide a local community structure for you.

Marketing come up with ideas to 'sell' ubuntu to the wider world.

One of these days I'm going to generate a fake "Ubuntu League Table" of teams. That'll be guaranteed comedy.

or not.

Let's not forget the newly created Wikiforum Team (https://launchpad.net/people/wikiforumteam) that is channeling information from the udsf and forums to the Official Help Wiki.

Please feel free to join the effort :)

There is an Artwork team, that I forgot to mention.

Please see: http://art.ubuntu.com

These people work to better the artwork included within the default distribution, and have some influence over theming ideas etc.
