Hi all, As some of you have noticed, I'm not at GUADEC this year. The reason is a happy one - Anne is going to be giving birth sometime over the next couple of weeks (I'll keep ye posted).
The combination of the arrival of a third child, and a change in role at work over the past few weeks, have meant that I've reevaluated the committment I can make to the board of the foundation. In all honesty, I can't guarantee that I will be able to do justice to my position as board member for the second half of the year, a period when the board is usually more effective than during the first part. So I prefer to leave my place to someone with more energy & ideas, and to leave the board at a time when I am still relatively happy with how I've done. I hereby resign my seat on the board. I have had a great two and a half years on the board, and I'd like to thank everyone with whom I've served - Owen Taylor, Luis Villa, Jody Goldberg, Daniel Veillard, Jonathan Blandford, Federico Mena-Quintero, Tim Ney, Miguel de Icaza, Murray Cumming, Christian Schaller, Jeff Waugh, Anne Oestergaard, Vincent Untz, Quim Gil, Glynn Foster, Behdad Esfahbod. Thanks also to everyone who has voted for me through the last 3 elections. I'd like to wish all the best to the board for the rest of the year, and good luck to the person who replaces me. Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary GNOME Foundation member [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
