I was quite surprised and humbled to learn from DanielHolbach this morning that I had been nominated to the 2011 Ubuntu Technical Board elections. (I hold each of the current board members in such lofty regards, that the thought of filling their shoes is really quite intimidating!) I've been an Ubuntu user since 2006, joining Canonical's Ubuntu Server Team in February 2008, and becoming an Ubuntu MOTU and Core Developer in the following year. I live and breathe Ubuntu, running on nearly every device in my possession, and having donated numerous others to friends, families, and schools. Ubuntu is much, much more than a job to me -- I spend countless hours working on the project, both "on the clock" and "off". I firmly believe that the Ubuntu Code of Conduct is one of the most important documents in modern Internet social interaction, and that the Ubuntu Community is its leading bastion to the rest of the world. I hope to live and work and interact by the principles therein. I would be delighted and honored to serve on the Ubuntu Technical Board. |

= Testimonials = I support Dustin's quest to become a Ubuntu member. He has showed alot of knowledge and experience that I appreciate. He would be a good member of the community -- ChuckShort (zul) Dustin's done great work, and he's a quick learner. Big +1 from me as well. -- KeesCook (kees) I'm happy that I get to work with Dustin every day. He's very enthusiastic about Ubuntu and I'd certainly consider him ubuntu member material. -- SorenHansen |
