documentation, marketing and the web team. I have been on the Board for

the last two months having been asked to fill Behdad's term. I think the

GNOME Foundation is doing very well and the future is bright with GNOME

3.0 just around the corner. I want to help promote GNOME 3 and continue
|

to improve the communication between the Board, the GNOME communities
|

and GNOME's partners to help GNOME grow.

Hi, this Emily Chen. I participated in GNOME since 2006. Now I am continue working in GNOME community because I believe in GNOME. I worked on LDTP project in 2006, then participated in Google Summer of Code 2006 and 2007 on GNOME LDTP projects as mentor. In 2008, I started the GNOME.Asia and organized the GNOME.Asia Summit 2008 in China and GNOME.Asia Summit 2009 in Vietnam. Now I am working on the GNOME.Asia 2010, which will be host in Taiwan in August. Also, I start the Beijing GNOME Users Group in Beijing since 2008 Nov. Now Beijing GNOME Users Group is one of the most active organization in Beijing. I want to make GNOME grow in Beijing, China, and Asia, it is meaningful to promote GNOME to more people, especially in Asia, because I see many opportunity and good community here in Asian.

Hello, I'm Seif Lotfy, I have been using GNOME since 2004

and participated starting 2007. I enjoy being part of the community and

enjoy spreading GNOME.
|

I initiated Zeitgeist and GNOME activity Journal, and dedicated most of
|

my time developing them and building a community around both. Now I would
|

love to start contributing in other parts of GNOME.

|

The GNOME Project has allowed me to take my first steps into the world
|
||||
of collaborative projects and long nights of translation sprints. Due
|
||||
to my open minded attitude, I have been able to get involved in many
|
||||
different projects and work with a great number of interesting people.
|
||||
|
||||
My passion is in the community aspect of these projects and how to
|
||||
better integrate new comers and volunteers with the rest of the
|
||||
community. I am also extremely interested in how we, the open source
|
||||
community as a whole, can leverage this immense pool of ideas and
|
||||
projects, and use it to the benefit of all.
|
||||
|
||||
If elected to the board, I will bring in my experience of building
|
||||
communities and guiding/enabling users to become more active in the
|
||||
GNOME Project. After all, the GNOME Project IS about people! I will
|
||||
also push to make accessibility a high priority for the project.
