I don't think you'll find a single candidate who'd argue that the forums are one of the biggest single reasons the Maemo community is where it is today. Nor that a passionate, powerful and informed group of people can exist within a forum (and, in particular this one).

However, could you explain more of the concrete changes you see so that "some of us" and the electorate can exactly see how you think the fora could be used better? Links to posts where you have suggested these improvements in the past would also be welcome :-)

Otherwise, I call "strawman"! (Been watching too much of season 7 of The West Wing; can I call the lawyers yet to arbitrate over the result?)
Wow!

First you post questions that to some look more like a survey of your effectiveness. However, you make it known that you feel that answering them is a prerequisite for accepting a nomination.Then you announce your candidacy... You have been watching to much West Wing.

You can call it or me, anything you want but I suggest you look outside this organization once in a while to see how others more effectively use fora.

After I posted that I am temporarily working 16 hour days because of a recent act of god, you now request from the "electorate" that I provide you as a "candidate" more detail?

I am not a child or a younger sibling and neither are the members of maemo.org. If you wish to run a positive campaign, run it on your past accomplishments. Not against the negatives that you perceive another candidate possesses.

I'm going back to work now in the physical world and for a time, will be away from from desk . Until then for links you can start >> HERE <<

After you finish reading, please feel free to ask me any questions you want.
