Hello,
hereby, I'd like to announce my candidacy for a Board of Directors seat
at The Document Foundation. Following-up the post to
[email protected], I'd like to give some more
details and background about myself, and am happy to answer any
questions you may have.
My name is Florian Effenberger, am 28 years of age, and I live in the
very south of Germany, in the beautiful Allgäu, 100 km southwest of of
Munich. I have been with TDF from the very beginning, serving in the
Steering Committee, and mostly responsible for marketing and
infrastructure, a field of activity where I also would like to
contribute in the future. Previously, I have been involved with
OpenOffice.org for seven years, for a long time being the marketing
contact for Germany, and in the end the lead of the international
marketing project and the distribution project.
I am also in the Board of Directors of the German association "Freies
Office Deutschland e.V." (translated "Free Office Germany association",
previously OpenOffice.org Deutschland e.V.), an entity set-up to
organize and arrange local events and activities, where I have been
serving since April 2008. FrODeV is also the interim legal entity for TDF.
In my "real life", so to say, I am in the process of finishing my
studies and -- you may have guessed it given the long e-mails I usually
write :) -- work part-time as a freelancer for marketing and as a
freelance journalist, so I have no corporate affiliation at the moment.
My main motivation for the candidacy is to ensure the daily operation of
the future Foundation, to provide a stable and secure framework not only
for our worldwide community, but also giving safety and confidence to
our corporate and private users around the globe.
So, now it's your turn -- I am happy to answer any questions that may
occur. ;-)
Florian
