Are you thinking of <http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/>  ?
Yea, It lists both unapproved (desaturated Ubuntu logo) and
approved(Ubuntu logo) teams there.

Btw, we are not an approved team either! 
So, going to the council and telling them that another unapproved team
should not exist is weird..  ;p

The earlier mentioned teams are not the only Indian local teams.
There are other Tamil teams and a Delhi team too. 
And the Tamil teams have done a lot of translations work, FOSS/Ubuntu
awareness during Local events, they recently went for individual LoCo
approval and but they werent approved (I forgot why exactly, I believe
they dint have their events documented clearly or something).

Nope not that Alan either, maybe you are thinking of Laura Czajkowski ?
LoCo council: <https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lococouncil>

Maybe the other teams could get approved before us? ;)

IMO, we could spend time actually focusing on doing LoCo work rather
than other teams. 
We could, however, contact them and tell them to join us.
