GNOME Board Elections
Posted at 19:59 +1100
Did the necessary work today so that I could register an informed vote for the GNOME Foundation Board. My involvement with GNOME these days is very much as a user and observer (and third party developer from time to time), so I wasn't completely up to date with what everybody was doing.
After having read through the mailing list postings from the candidates and combined it with what I knew of the people — I know about two thirds of them from personal experience and have had email contact with almost all of them over the years — I have to say I am very impressed with the quality of the candidates. Any seven from the list of eleven candidates would seem to work well as a group (at least, on paper). It's not an easy job, being a volunteer board member. So I wish all of ultimately successful candidates well in the coming year and am pulling for them to get some good stuff done.
