I'm known as ivgalvez at TMO and I'm currently member of the Maemo Council. I joined this community in September 2011, just after receiving my N900, and I started to participate in it, with a passion and interest I haven't felt before in any other open source community I knew.
As current Council Member, I feel that I have the responsibility to help finishing the transition process to a self sustained NFP entity that we have started. I am one of the three signers in the articles of incorporation, with Woody14619 and SD69, and I think that I should help in the first steps of foundation as an independent entity.
I also joined the Council with high hopes for fixing the long-standing problems we have with the infrastructure, but we haven't succeeded yet. In fact, this was my main goal when I run for latest Council election, now I only hope that with a real entity (Board) sustaining the community, we could have better results in the upcoming months.
Considering the low number of candidates we have at this moment, I have finally decided to run for both groups, Board and Council, despite my public preference about having separate groups.
