Self introduction
Hi, my name is Oliver Propst [1], I'm a new foundation member. I have contributed to the marketing efforts of GNOME (as part of the Engagement Team) since around 2010. Beside my GNOME contributions I'm also involved with the Mozilla community [2] and organizing the free software/society conference FSCONS [3] (which Karen keynoted last year). Other interests includes exercise, take pictures [4] and read comics [5]. Professionally I work as a public school teacher, although this semester I'm attending a course at the University here in Gothenburg, Sweden where I live. I look forward to continue contribute to the Engagement Team efforts and collaborate with the rest of the GNOME community. 1 https://twitter.com/Opropst 2 https://reps.mozilla.org/u/oliver_propst/ 3 https://fscons.org/2013/ 4 http://500px.com/oliverpropst 5 https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/18407066-oliver-propst -- -mvh Oliver Propst ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

I'm a bit sad to hear this from an ex-OPW participant as OPW is itself an unfair[1] advantage and you were one of the people to get that. If it makes you feel better, Diego will not get that favour. This comment was orthogonal to the discussion, and as a former OPW intern I found it to be discouraging. It really should not be. Did you see my footnote to this comment? If you did, Its here: [1] Don't get me wrong, being a big supporter of OPW, I understand the rationale for being unfair and in fact thats my point. Feel free to contact me in private if you want me to expand on that since you yourself pointed out, this discussion is orthogonal to the thread. -- Regards, Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) Befriend GNOME: http://www.gnome.org/friends/ ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

With that said I really don't care to argue, but since nobody else has called you out: nitpicks below inline. Really? Sri and Sindhu already replied. There really was no need to retatiate with a message full of sarcasm and insults. My intention was only to defend the board but since a board member himself thought that I'm wrong here, I decided to rest my case. Since you asked, I will reply in private to address your valid points about OPW. -- Regards, Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) Befriend GNOME: http://www.gnome.org/friends/ ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
