Name: Tobias Bernard Email: tbern...@gnome.org Corporate affiliation: Purism
Hi all, I'd like to announce my candidacy for the upcoming board elections. I've been using GNOME for over a decade, and actively contributing on the design team since 2016. Over the past 5 years I've worked on most new user-facing features and initiatives, such as the 2019 app icon redesign and the GNOME 40 shell refresh. As part of my work for Purism I've also been heavily involved with porting apps to mobile form factors, and improving our developer story in the process with Libhandy/Libadwaita. I believe my deep involvement with many different parts of our product and various sub-communities within the project would be an asset when it comes to communication with our developer community as well as the broader public. If elected I'd like to help improve communication both internally and externally, and work on outreach to potential new contributors outside the traditional open source demographics. I have not served on a non-profit board before, but I'm excited about learning everything necessary to be an effective board member. Thanks, Tobias _______________________________________________ foundation-announce mailing list foundation-announce@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-announce
