Thank you for the support!  To fulfill the formal needs, I guess there
is some info I need to provide :-)

First things first - indeed, I would like to serve in the board, and I
am running for the elections.  I hope that many of you, members of The
Document Foundation, already know me; but let me introduce myself to
those I haven't met yet.

Most people know me as Kendy - which is my nickname on the IRC, in the
real life, everywhere.  Don't ask me why I have that nickname, I don't
remember, got it very early in my life ;-) - but it is handy, there is
too many Jan's in my country.

I am primarily a developer, who loves improving the UI, and works mostly
on interoperability for a living (and love that too, actually).  I am
with LibreOffice from the very beginning, and have been involved with
OOo previously - I have started contributing in 2003, more than 10 years
ago.  Over the years, I worked on the KDE integration (my first
contribution), 64bit porting, DOCX export, git conversion, and various
other things.

I am always trying to reach out to other groups, too.  I did quite some
translations to my native language (Czech), work with the designers, and
in marketing, I am managing our AdWords.  I am a regular Google Summer
of Code mentor.

That's it about me - if you need to know more, please do ask!

Full name: Jan Holešovský

Email: [email protected]

Corporate affiliation: Collabora

~75 words candidacy statement:

"I am with LibreOffice from the very beginning, and have been involved
with OOo previously - I have started contributing more than 10 years
ago. I am primarily a developer, though I am always trying to reach out
to other groups too - I did quite some translations to Czech, work with
the designers, and in marketing. I am a regular GSoC mentor. I want to
enter the board to serve the entire community :-)"

All the best,
Kendy
