[board-discuss] domain names
Hello, I'm currently in the process of transferring all those domain names people kept for TDF (thanks again!) before we were fully able to put them in our portfolio. Unfortunately, for some countries, you need a local residence in order to be eligible for registering a domain name. While for some countries, our registrar provides a trustee agreement, for other countries, this simply does not exist, so TDF cannot legally transfer those domains. If nobody objects, I would not demand a fully-fledged agreement, but only draft a short text that people keep the domain names on behalf of TDF and we cover costs (up to XYZ €). Whenever TDF is able to transfer them, the current holder agrees to transfer them over to us. If you have objections, raise them now - otherwise I'll go on like described. :) Florian -- Florian Effenberger, Chairman of the Board (Vorstandsvorsitzender) Tel: +49 8341 99660880 | Mobile: +49 151 14424108 The Document Foundation, Zimmerstr. 69, 10117 Berlin, Germany Gemeinnützige rechtsfähige Stiftung des bürgerlichen Rechts Legal details: http://www.documentfoundation.org/imprint -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to board-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Hello, this is a short status quo on the MC candidacies. Right now, we have received the following candidacies, in order of receipt: - David Emmerich Jourdain - Sophie Gautier - Fridrich Štrba - Simon Phipps - Leif Lodahl If you don't see your name on this list, but have sent in your candidacy, please let us know as soon as possible! Per the Board's decision, [1] the new membership committee shall consist of a total of seven (7) members, five (5) seat holders plus two (2) deputies. Members of The Document Foundation as of 2012-07-01 are eligible to vote in the elections. Candidacies must be announced prior to 2012-09-02, 23:59 UTC. [2] I'd like to explicitly motivate all previous MC seat holders and deputies to apply again. Your stepping back made a member-elected MC possible, and all of you are invited to apply again for a seat.

[board-discuss] Nomination for Membership Committee
I nominate myself for the Membership Committee. My primary participation in TDF has been with the Documentation Team, which elected me as Team Leader earlier this year. I also participate in marketing (both the list and through promotional activities at conferences). I was an active member of the former OpenOffice.org project from 2004 until 2010, where I did more direct user support as well as documentation. I am not employed by any company or organisation, although I do serve as Secretary/Treasurer of an Australia-based not-for-profit community association, Friends of OpenDocument, Inc. I am also a member of other organisations, including the Open Source Initiative.
