Thanks again, Jerome. Actually, that was the word that I was trying to remember last night. Anyway, for the good of the organization and the community, please make use of the wiki accordingly. But IMHO, nominating another person to run for an office is not a good idea. I believe that if you are willing to serve and volunteer your time, money and skills for the good of the organization, you SHOULD stand up and be courageous enough to nominate your self and that you're willing to be one of the next board officers. It should be a free will that you are very interested to run for an office to serve the community but not for pristige. Lastly, again IMHO and I suggest that whoever the next board officers SHOULDN'T need to be a guru of GNU/Linux and F/OSS. Instead, we need people with a strong leadership in their own way, passion and believes the ideals of F/OSS. And I hope that we will support and guide them for the good of the organization.
