I'm flattered to be nominated again and thank you for the nomination. With regret, I have to decline. I'm going through a very busy period right now and I would not be able to dedicate the time that a place on the council deserves. Thanks to everyone for your support. Serving on the council would be a great way to give something back to this community that has given me so much. I would definitely consider it in the future, I'm just not able to right now I'm afraid.

Wow! I really don't know what to say, I feel truly humbled by this.

To me, this community encompasses more than just Maemo. I consider Tizen to be one its descendants, just like MeeGo and Sailfish and they all have a lot in common when compared to other mobile OSs. There will be people on the council who have a preference for Maemo, others with a preference for Sailfish and others for Harmattan. I don't see why Tizen can't be a part of this. The more diversity, the better in my opinion. I was very impressed with your term on the council and I would urge you to reconsider.
