Re: Announcing Board of Directors Elections 2016

[Andrea Veri <av gnome org>]

Given the fact not enough candidacies were submitted the deadline for
announcing candidacies is extended till the 21st of May, 23:59 UTC.

As a Director serving since two years already I would love to mention
being on the Board is definitely a great experience and a way to learn
how one of the most famous FOSS-related non-profit Foundations around
the globe is actually ran behind the scenes. If you are a Foundation
Member, have some spare time and willing to contribute to the GNOME
Project in a way which doesn't strictly involve coding or any other
development task, feel free to apply! I'm sure you will find this
experience very rewarding!

What we need from you is an e-mail to foundation-announce gnome org
providing the following details:

1. your full name
2. e-mail address
3. corporate affiliation (if any)
4. your reasons for wanting to serve as a director

At your disposition for further questions,
