I accept.

My platform remains the same as last year.

- Complete IRS tax paperwork (costing some money)
- Pay backtaxes (so we have a clear financial record)
- Dissolve Gentoo Foundation Inc.

Given recent progress made on the first two items, I expect to dissolve the
Foundation by the end of the next Fiscal year (ending June 2020). The
result would likely be the assets (any leftover money and trademarks) would
be donated to an existing non-profit to act as a custodian for; and the
community members would liaise with them for funding / trademark defense.

Should I be elected, please expect a more detailed plan at the AGM.

Thanks,

-A
