Tobias Mueller 1d674ff9d4 Added page for the elections in 2009
This was mostly a copy&paste job from 2007 with updating some data,
especially the year.
Note, that most of the sites need an update! Especially rules.wml should
be updated.
Also note, that timeline.ics could be generated with mkical.py, but I
don't know Automake or the server setup good enough to make that happen.

<h1>Candidates for the GNOME Foundation 2009 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-announce/">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>
<p>
Additional elections details can be found on the
<a href="../../">GNOME Foundation Web Site</a>.
