Dear Community, Members of the TDF, and Membership Committee,
I hereby state that I will be running again for a Board of Directors seat with
The Document Foundation.
Im Bjoern Michaelsen, the Ubuntu maintainer for LibreOffice and am working for
Canonical. I have been elected to be a deputy
this call. It would be ideal if we had most SC and BoD
members to hand over the duties.
I just arrived in Orlando, got setup in the Hotel, so I should be able to join.
If not, I have just been to optimistic wrt to the infrastructure here. ;)
