I've been using GNOME since October GNOME and have been kind of flirting outside "becoming officially a part 
of GNOME" for years. I'd like to change that and become more active in the project. Also, I've recently taken 
on the role of external developer relations at Canonical Ltd. and would like to "be closer to upstream" by 
becoming a foundation member.

I also love GNOME, hardcore.
