Hi :) I think the Brazilian Community needs quite a few people representing them. It is good to hear different views from different people so that outsiders can get a better idea of what is really happening. However, i agree with Paulo that it should be clear that each person is not the only representative, that there are others. Hopefully the Brazilian Community can find a way to agree who represents them formally to which outsiders = perhaps 1 rep to government, another to a particular funder, and so on. Within the wider TDF Community there will hopefully be a lot of Brazilian voices giving feedback about various areas of activity.

The Community deliberates and decides. But I also think until that, you shall not introduce yourself as a representative, giving an impression that you are the only way for people to get there. I suggest, until things are over, you remove that phrase from your profile.
