Benefits
Being a GNOME Foundation member takes in several benefits. One of them being an @gnome.org alias which matches the desired account name as provided above. The alias will then point to the e-mail you specified above as your permanent e-mail address.
Other benefits and ways to have them available to you are available here.
Contributions
Becoming a Foundation member requires the applicant to have made a non-trivial amount of contributions to any of the GNOME Project contribution categories including code, translations, advocacy, infrastructure, outreach and documentation. This can include contributions to the main GNOME project or GNOME Circle projects. Processing will be much quicker if you provide links. Please tell us whether you were an existing Foundation member or have done something relevant for the GNOME Foundation in the past.
Over 23 years of consistent contributions, talks and community management. In addition, I run initiatives - app ecosystem with CHAOSS, Linux App Summit organization, Scalable Onboarding, and Extensions Rebooted.
References
It helps us processing your application faster if you could quote (via @username) existing GNOME maintainers or contributors who could vouch for you and your contributions.
Eh do I really need one? :-)
