11 I'd like to chime in in the last minute and offer my services as well (aka
12 nominate myself, how foolishly egocentric of me ;-) I have been a trustee
13 way in the past and would like nothing more than to see Gentoo succeed
14 further (and having a well-run Foundation is an integral part of that).
15
16 I have some experience in intellectual property matters in Europe (but I'm
17 no lawyer, just an interested party) and am fluent in writing stuff (like
18 progressing the privacy policy stuff and what not) so when needed, just give
19 me a hurl (or allow my nomination and vote for me ;-)
20
21 My personal time might not be sufficient for Council stuff (which would
22 almost require me to read up on all gentoo-dev mails) but I have the time to
23 work on and assist the Gentoo Foundation.
