Other comments:
---------------
I came in touch with GNOME in 2010. Since then I have tried to contribute GNOME in as many ways I could find 
feasible and supported it through my blog posts and talks except in conditions when things were out of my 
control (visa rejection for the Desktop Summit) and will hope to continue doing it as this is a gifted way 
for me to touch lives of millions. I aim to know it through and through and see myself growing as a GNOME 
hacker before landing into a job at any of the core companies supporting development of GNOME.
