With the final list of candidates announced, it's time to submit questions about the GNOME Foundation and GNOME Project to this years prospective Board of Directors.
The list, a summary of each candidate's statement and a link to each candidate's candidacy can be found at: http://foundation.gnome.org/elections/2007/candidates.html Here we'll go: [1] How much impact would being a member of the GNOME Foundation Board have on your current contributions to GNOME ? [2] Online Desktop and Services are being talked about as the next large step in GNOME - what is your vision for Online Desktop and Services and how would you measure them ? [3] What are the SMART goals that you desire to set for yourself should you be elected to the Board ? [4] If you were part of the GNOME Board last year and a candidate again, what would you like to put as your achievements as a Board member ? Or, [4] If you are a candidate for the first time, what are the areas that you think you can do better ? [5] Do you think it is important to mentor and coach potential leaders in the GNOME community ? If yes, what do you think the role of the Board be in this task ? If no, what are your thoughts on this ? [6] Some of the tasks of a Board Member are mundane administrative tasks, are you comfortable taking on such tasks as opposed to being always involved in strategic and visionary thinking ? [7] What or which according to you, is the one "tipping point" move for GNOME in the coming year ? [8] What do you think is the most important item on the Board's agenda right now ? What will you do more or better than the previous boards in that aspect ? [9] What is your positioning with respect to the issue of OOXML? [10] Why do you think we need a GNOME Foundation ? We hope a very good debate!
