Send us your pants nominations

[Neil McGovern]

Hi all,

GUADEC is coming up soon, and with GUADEC comes the annual Pants Award.
Every year, GNOME awards a pair of pants to somebody in recognition of
their outstanding contributions. The board will make the final decision
on who receives the pants, but we'd love to hear your nominations.

The award can be for any kind of contribution to our software or our
community. It does not have to be software development work. The only
requirements are that the person is attending GUADEC to receive the
pants, and that it's not a current or outgoing board member. Not sure
if the person fits the requirements? Just nominate! We'll sort it out.

Please feel free to send your nominations as a reply to this email. Or,
if you'd prefer to nominate someone anonymously, email board-list.

Thanks,
Neil

Thanks for your nomination, Felipe. In order to help the board make a
decision, we usually ask that people tell us why they think their
nominees deserve the pants. Can you tell us a little more?

Cheers.

He would also get my vote. Those who have ever talked to me about email
or follow me on various online outreach outlets (including Twitter or
G+) might know how much of a fan I am of the tireless work he quietly
does on Evolution, which is a fairly critical productivity tool to
many.

However, for him to get such a prize, one would need to ensure he
actually attends GUADEC. I have never had the opportunity to meet him
there so far, although I often expressed my interest in seeing him at
GUADEC, so this is me sending a wish into the world that he can be
extracted from Brno this year ;)___

Here's a nomination for Milan Crha who does lots of hacking on Evolution.

https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/log/

It's not the most public, "sexy" project in our arsenal, and while
many people find it more glorious to work on newer things like Maps,
Builder, Flatpak and more (I'm a fan of these projects, the
contributors and their work) it's still excellent to have people
contributing to one of the workhorses that helps many of us get a lot
of our work done.

Here's to Milan, and the other Evolution contributors. May they
continue their great work, and may other join them in the quest to a
better alternative to gmail.

Thanks,
James

In case this helps spur any other nominations, here's a list of the
previous pants winners: https://wiki.gnome.org/Pants

We're missing a few entries, so if you know who won the pants those years,
please add them ;)
