I'd just like to remind translators that anyone who contributes to GNOME (yes, that includes translations!) may be eligable for a GNOME Foundation membership. So if you aren't a member of the GNOME Foundation already, you can always ask to become a member.
What is the GNOME Foundation? ============================= The GNOME Foundation is the foundation behind GNOME. It takes care of the GNOME brand, trademarks, hardware, any donations GNOME might get, and arranges GNOME conferences such as GUADEC. You can read more about the GNOME Foundation at http://foundation.gnome.org/ Who can be a member in the GNOME Foundation? ============================================ Anyone who has contributed to GNOME, be it code, documentation, translations, or other substantial contributions. I've only translated some GNOME applications into my language. Can I be a member? ============================================================== Yes! Why should I be a member in the GNOME Foundation? ================================================= Being a member gives you the right to vote in the GNOME Foundation board elections. As a member, you can that way, for example, influence what GNOME should spend any money it should get on. The next elections are coming up, so it is a good idea to apply for membership right away, so that you will be able to vote in the upcoming elections. Also, being a GNOME Foundation member, you can get a cool @gnome.org e-mail alias as well, should you want it. How do I become a member? ========================= You simply follow the instructions at http://foundation.gnome.org/membership/ for applying for membership. I'm already a GNOME Foundation member. How do I get the cool @gnome.org e-mail alias I'm entitled to? ======================================================================= Follow the instructions on http://developer.gnome.org/doc/policies/accounts/ for requesting an e-mail alias.
