Was this hard info to find? It is listed on the Doc Team wiki page [1]
which links here [2]. If this information is not easily accessible, we
may need to figure out how to make it more apparent.

I have not heard anything about the UBT taking over any tasks from the
doc team, it has not been discussed with us. They are free to mentor
users in how to use the wiki, and we welcome such support, but
applicants still need to fulfil the requirements described in the URLs
and relevant linked pages above.

Not to my knowledge - is there a bug on LP for this?
