Previous GNOME Foundation member: no

GNOME contributions:
--------------------

Summary:
I have done quite a bit of legal work for the GNOME Foundation.

Detailed description:
I have provided a range of advice in a number of areas, including licensing (GPL and otherwise), contract 
matters, publishing concerns, employment benefits, and responding to subpoenas seeking documents and 
depositions.  That description is a little vague because privilege concerns prevent my providing much in the 
way of details.  Stormy can confirm that those words connect to actual work in the real world, though.

I attend GNOME Advisory Board meetings on behalf of the Software Freedow Law Center, although I lurk more 
than I participate in that forum.

Contacts:
Stormy Peters <stormy AT gnome.org> is my main contact.  I worked with  Brian Cameron <Brian.Cameron AT 
Sun.COM> on the Biax matter, a project that took quite a lot of time.  But I've also worked with a lot of 
GNOME folks over the years.

Pointers:


Other comments:
---------------
GNOME is a great project, and I'd be proud to be a member.
