Thanks for the kind words and display of confidence. I accept the |

nomination. |

I have been a Gentoo developer since 2004 April 14. (A bit of irony; my |
25 |
recruiter --- dmwaters --- indicated that I was coming on board about |
26 |
the same time as drobbins was leaving.) My signature line tells you |
27 |
what I do in Gentoo. |

For those who don't know, I am a lawyer and can read legal documents, |
30 |
talk with other lawyers, etc. Unfortunately, I cannot help directly |
31 |
with the issues facing us: (1) I am not licensed anywhere but Michigan |
32 |
(in the US); (2) I am not really qualified to handle matters related to |
33 |
corporate law; (3) I am definitely not qualified to handle anything to |
34 |
do with intellectual property (trademarks and copyrights and such). |
