Candidates for Fall 2001 GNOME Foundation Elections

+

Nov 10, 2001

+


+
+ +

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 +foundation-list@gnome.org +(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/).

+

When deciding who you should vote for, please carefully consider +the various tasks the Board of Directors must perform. This overview +(http://foundation.gnome.org/overview.html) +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.

+

Additional election details can be found at the end of this +message and on http://foundation.gnome.org +(where you can also find this document).

+

If you have any questions, please send them to either +foundation-list@gnome.org or to us at elections@gnome.org.

21. ARIEL RIOS +" +My experience ranges from developing on Guile to numerous other contributions +including technical reviews for Gtk+ and GNOME related books. I have been hacking +in GNOME since the first years of the project. I have attended many conferences +as a promoter of Free Software and GNOME.

Full statement at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-announce/2001-November/msg00017.html +

+ +

22. RICHARD STALLMAN +" +I've been working for GNOME since years before there was a GNOME. In +1983, while formulating plans for the GNU operating system, I decided +it should include a window system. After two desktop initiatives that +didn't pan out, I found Miguel, who launched our third desktop +project--GNOME.

I maintains +the advocacy site free-soft.org and the GUI Toolkit +and Framework Page, the definite reference for GUI +toolkits on the Internet. I understand the major +weakness of the GNOME architecture at this stage. If +I am elected, the first thing I will push is to merge +gnome-specific widgets into gtk+, so there are less +number of libraries to link against :-) +" +No affiliation. Full statement at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-announce/2001-November/msg00013.html +

+ +

24. DANIEL VEILLARD +" +I am French, long time Gnomer and Linux addict, maintainer of +libxml, libxslt and rpmfind. I served on the Gnome Board for last +year and I am used to non-profit organizations and the negotiation +needed to reach consensus in a group. I will focus on the reuse +of standards, internationalization and keeping trust relationship at an +individual level. I think those are needed to keep hacking on Gnome fun +and getting acceptance in new communities. Affiliation Red Hat. +" +Full statement at +http://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-announce/2001-November/msg00001.html +

+ +

25. JEFF WAUGH +" +We need to improve the project's outreach, both within the Free Software +community and outside it, through documentation, publicity, and making +good information easy to get to. Some work on infrastructure can make +other tasks and goals easier, such as contributing and releasing. We need +more GNOME love and better cooperation. All of this, openly and +transparently, without interrupting our awesome hacker's hacking time! I'm +wacky enough to believe we can do it, too. :) +" +No affiliation.
