For all candidates, how do you see being on the board will enhance or
facilitate the volunteer work you already do in the commutity?
I do not think that there is much overlap between the work I already do in the community[1] and the board, so it would be fair to say that I do not think that being on the board would enhance it. The GNOME project has goals that are common to all areas of the community, so I see the board work as complementing my existing involvement.
How
many hours per week do you expect you will be able to dedicate to
working on the board on a regular basis?
Based on my conversations with current and past board members, I anticipate that I would need to dedicate a couple of hours per day to board work. I expect the workload to vary somewhat throughout the year and, because I have flexible working arrangements, I am able to spend considerably more time than that on board work when it is needed.
