+    <h1>Candidates for the GNOME Foundation 2021 Elections</h1>
+
+    <p>
+      Below you find the list of candidates running for the
+      GNOME Foundation Board of Directors in 2021. We encourage everyone
+      to check the candidates' full candidacy statements, and follow related 
+      discussions on <a 
href="https://discourse.gnome.org/c/community/elections-and-referendums/336";>Discourse</a>.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>
+      When deciding who to vote for, please consider
+      the various tasks under the responsibility of the Board of Directors. This
+      <a href="../overview.html">overview</a> might be helpful. The board makes 
+      a number of important decisions and performs many tasks which require time,
+      effort and the ability to work and communicate with others. The Board of 
+      Directors will represent GNOME to companies and the world. 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="https://foundation.gnome.org";>GNOME Foundation Web Site</a>.

+            <li><strong>Thibault Martin</strong><br />
+                Affiliation: <em>Doctolib</em><br />
+                <blockquote>
+I am announcing my candidacy for the GNOME Foundation Board of Directors. You will find below the key points 
of who am I in the GNOME Community and what I would like to help with. For the full length wall of text, 
please have a look at the blog post announcing my candidacy.
+
+Like many, I started my involvement in the GNOME community as an end-user. I eventually started helping with 
translations. For this activity I have regularily been chasing maintainers for string freezes, or to ask for 
explanations when strings didn’t make sense for me.
+This helped me to blend in, meet the more general community, and finally take interest in higher level 
issues such as our infamous chat platforms split, or co-organising the GSoC 2021. I have a very strong 
interest in people, groups of them, ethics, how software impacts them all and how proper governance can help 
to achieve goals.
+
+As a member of the board, I would focus on our internal and external communication, where we have a lot of 
room for improvement. Attracting new contributors is essential: our public face and the messages we send must 
resonate with their values. Once they are here, the bottleneck for their contributions must be removed: what 
they can do and where to do it must be clear, how to do it as well. While getting new recruits is extremely 
important for a project to stay in good shape, sustainability cannot be achieved without taking care of long 
time contributors.
+
+I am strongly biased towards think for a bit but start doing quickly, ask around how it impacted others, and 
adapt rather than overthinking. I believe KPIs are necessarily biased and get circumvented all the time. 
Human interactions is how you measure success.
+
+As the head of digital identity of a large organisation, I am experienced in projects aiming to lower the 
friction for customer onboarding. Quite counter-intuitively, many parallels can be drawn between corporate 
customers and non-profit contributors.
+
+Open-source software communities used to despise designers and thought they knew better. Now we welcome them 
and see the positive impact they have. A second mentality change needs happen: we must allow the persons who 
are good at hyping others to help.

+I'm announcing my candidacy for the GNOME Foundation board of directors election.
+
+Currently, I am the lead of the GNOME Asia committee [1]. If I am elected to be a board member, it enables 
me to share my opinions and experiences in & from the Asia community with the board directly.
+
+I am a Hongkonger who contributes to the open source and GNOME community for 20+ and 10 years. I grew up 
between the western and eastern cultures in the British colony. I embrace democracy and freedom which are the 
important values in the western. It is thankful that the open source community provides many different 
software tools, and I am always happy to contribute back to the community and the society with my experience, 
mindset, and knowledge in technology.
+
+For the GNOME community, I organised the GNOME Asia Summit 2012 in Hong Kong with our local team. After the 
summit, I join the GNOME Asia committee in 2012 to help the committee to call for hosts every year, and gives 
advice and supports to the local teams.
+
+For the open source community, I established Hong Kong Linux User Group (HKLUG) and Open Source Hong Kong 
(OSHK) in 1997 and 2006. Thanks to the success of the GNOME Asia Summit in Hong Kong, I established the Hong 
Kong Open Source Conference and PyCon Hong Kong in 2013 and 2015. Since 2011, I also travel to overseas open 
source conferences every year and meet with open source communities in the various cities in Asia, and travel 
to Bay Area, I built some connections with some Asia communities and global open source project communities.
+
+Currently, I am the President of OSHK and the conference chair of PyCon HK. I am also a Mozilla Rep and a 
contributing member of the Python Software Foundation. I was a founder and director of HK Creative Open 
Technology Association which provides organisational support to our open source community works locally.
+
+In my career, I own my IT service company in the 00s for 6 years and then become a freelancer for 10+ years. 
I learned and gained business operation experience.
+
+I think communication is important to the GNOME community, and I hope my business operation experience and 
almost 20 conference organising experiences can help GNOME,  a new role can enable me to help. You may also 
read my interview on the GNOME blog to know more about me and my thoughts on GNOME.

+I am offering my candidacy to serve on the Foundation Board again.
+
+I was a director/president for some years before, while we had no ED, and what I bring to the table today is 
my marketing, strategy & finance perspective. I am excited about the direction the GNOME Foundation is taking 
and would be happy to participate in its governance. I understand this is a new context compared to previous 
year and this comes with its own set of challenges.
+
+I'm keeping this pitch short & simple, if you would like to learn more about me, please have a look at the 
<a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/JeffFortin";>following link</a>.
