    <h1>Candidates for the GNOME Foundation 2012 Elections</h1>

    <p>
      Below you will find a list of candidates who are running for the
      GNOME Foundation Board of Directors. A short summary statement from
      each candidate and a link to their full candidacy announcement is
      provided to help you learn more about them. We encourage all voters
      to read the full candidacy statements and related discussions on
      <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/">foundation-list&#64;gnome&#46;org</a>.
    </p>

    <p>
      When deciding who you should vote for, please carefully consider
      the various tasks the Board of Directors must perform. This
      <a href="../overview.html">overview</a> may be helpful. Keep in mind that
      the board will make a number of important decisions and will also have to
      perform many tasks which require a significant amount of time and effort
      and the ability to work and communicate with other people, companies, and
      the media. The board of directors will represent GNOME to companies and
      the world in a very real way. It is a good idea to strive for a
      well-balanced board consisting of people with various backgrounds,
      skills, and perspectives.
    </p>

                     I have been part of GNOME in various roles since the early 2.x days
                    and I think it is time together volunteer for an organizational role. I have
                    already arranged 2 hackfests under GNOME and found that I enjoy the
                    work and that I have a talent for the required fundraising as well as
                    drumming up excitement. I have plenty of sparetime as I am retired on
                    medical grounds and I would love to dedicate some of it towards
                    dragging GNOME kicking and screaming into the 21th century. I have
                    plenty of ideas for how to raise funds and for where GNOME can (and
                    should) go in the future.

                    to be done evenings, weekends, and holidays as a community contributor.
                    Joining Igalia in October 2011 has made it possible for GNOME
                    Accessibility to become part of my DayJob, which in turn has given me a
                    very precious commodity: spare time. I would like to spend some of that
                    time serving on the GNOME Foundation Board.

                    to a new treasurer. The treasurer role is inevitably difficult for

                    can smoothly transition year to year, because handling GNOME's money

                Currently, I spend nearly 50% of my working time on GNOME-related projects, thanks to Collabora. I also spend a lot of my time working on deploying Zeitgeist into some smaller projects like Gedit (the dashboard plugin), which greatly benefited from design collaboration with Hylke Bons and Garrett LeSage.

                Sometimes misunderstandings and miscommunication happen in the community, especially between different teams who may share similar goals but different viewpoints. This blurred vision was evident in mailing-lists over the past few weeks. (Thankfully Olav did a great job moderating the lists to not let it get too out-of-hand.)
