|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |     <p> | ||||||
|  |       Stormy Peters is the GNOME Foundation's executive director. She is tasked | ||||||
|  |       with managing and growing the GNOME Foundation as an organization. | ||||||
|  |       Working with the Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and the GNOME | ||||||
|  |       Foundation members, Stormy will help strengthen the Foundation by | ||||||
|  |       attracting new industry members and community contributors to create an | ||||||
|  |       awesome, easy-to-use, free and open source desktop, a strong development | ||||||
|  |       platform and accelerate the adoption of GNOME. Stormy's combination of | ||||||
|  |       industry expertise and community background will enable the Foundation to | ||||||
|  |       extend its outreach to industry, sponsors and the community, as well as | ||||||
|  |       increasing contact with new constituencies like mobile developers and | ||||||
|  |       governments considering deploying GNOME. | ||||||
|  |     </p> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |     <p> | ||||||
|  |       As an open source advocate, Stormy has established relationships with the | ||||||
|  |       open source community and industry sponsors, including GNOME. Stormy has | ||||||
|  |       been involved with the GNOME Foundation, having been one of the founding | ||||||
|  |       members of the GNOME Foundation Advisory Board in 2000 and a keynote | ||||||
|  |       speaker at last year's GUADEC. Her previous positions include that of | ||||||
|  |       Open Source Program Manager at Hewlett-Packard and Director of Community | ||||||
|  |       and partner programs at OpenLogic. | ||||||
