  Hi everyone.

  I've decided to throw my hat into the ring for Maemo Community
  Council. I'm sure that most of you are familiar with me and what I've
  done/what I am doing. For those who are not...

  I'm a 30 year old married father of one that has been working in the
  video game industry for 4 years this coming Halloween. A lot of my
  work within Maemo has mirrored the kind of work that I have ended up
  doing professionally: quality assurance, production and... well...
  all the dirty jobs no one else seems to want to do. I've applied the
  skills I've learned professionally over to Maemo repeatedly, as one
  can see through the many bugs I've filed against Maemo and
  surrounding software as well as recently spearheading the movement
  for community involvement with Nokia's translation teams. We use
  agile software development at work (SCRUM) just as Nokia and the
  council appears to, so I feel that I'll be extremely comfortable
  within this environment.

  This wouldn't be the first time that I've been involved in leading a
  community as I've been involved as a community liason between a
  company I do not work for and a community I love. I know what to
  expect and how things typically work when trying to interact with
  commercial entities as a community member as well as the other way
  around.

  Like you, I love these tablets and I want to do everything possible
  to not only keep them alive, but make them a true success. Help me
  make the most of this platform.

  Thanks for your time,
  Jay Carter
