-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, good people,
Thanks a lot to my dear friend Thorsten for this nomination. After a moment of distance from the project, I am thrilled to be back, alive and kicking. I am humbled and naturally, I can only accept this generous nomination On 23/11/13 22:55, Thorsten Behrens wrote: > Fridrich is the former chairman of the membership committee; and > beyond being an all-round likeable person, I appreciate him the > most for his true Free software spirit, and his great insight into > community matters. I am really amazed. Thorsten has the gift to find always words that make me -- for a short moment -- even believe all the nice things he says about me :) Name: Fridrich Strba email address: fridrich.st...@bluewin.ch no relevant affiliation (currently working for SUSE on unrelated stuff) I am reputed to be a developer. I have spent a lot of time to mentor GSoC students and to co-administer the GSoC within LibreOffice and within its predecessors. Why am I running? As a (naturalized) Swiss and fluent in a certain number of languages, I managed to create and keep great relationships in several NL communities as well as quite a good understanding of the different mentalities. Given my inside knowledge of the different communities, I am confident that I could be the bridging element inside the Board. In spite of my quite original character, and in major part by my persistence, I managed to give a birth to a particular community of writers of filters for reverse-engineered file-formats. This work helped to market our product as a Swiss Army Knife(tm) or office suites. Having gone with our project through periods of huge euphoria, but also through the dark valleys of deep depression, I can offer this experience for the good of the foundation and of its members. If the electors deem me worthy serving on the Board, I will do my very best not to disappoint them. Cheers F. - -- Please avoid sending me Word, Excel or PowerPoint attachments.
