GNOME Foundation Board Candidacy - David Nielsen

Corporate Affiliation: None

I have been part of GNOME in various roles since the early 2.x days
and I think it is time to volunteer for an organizational role. I have
already arranged 2 hackfests under GNOME and found that I enjoy the
work and that I have a talent for the required fundraising as well as
drumming up excitement. I have plenty of sparetime as I am retired on
medical grounds and I would love to dedicate some of it towards
dragging GNOME kicking and screaming into the 21th century. I have
plenty of ideas for how to raise funds and for where GNOME can (and
should) go in the future.

Thank you for the consideration,
David Nielsen
