[maemo-community] Re: Council nomination: Valério Valério (VDVsx)

[From: Valerio Valerio]

Thanks guys for the encouragement. After some reflection I accept
nomination.

http://maemo.org/profile/view/vdvsx/

Name: Valério Domingos Valério
Nickname: VDVsx
Company: none relevant to Maemo

About me:

* Currently I'm a MSc researcher at University of Évora, Portugal, and in
the last years I have actively participated in several OSS projects and
community's.

* I joined the Maemo Community about an year ago. After the development of
BlueMaemo, I received some very positive feedback from the community, that
made me stick around.

* During my studies, I've done facilitator roles, that in my opinion can
help me and the community if I'm elected. I also have a passion for
organizing events/initiatives and make things happen.

* I consider myself a normal guy, in my free time I like to watch football,
cinema, listen rock music and do some sports.


My past participation and future goals:

In the last year, I actively contributed to our community as a programmer,
but also organized some initiatives as Andrew said. The big one's were the
Google Summer of Code participation and more recently the schedule of the
community days of the Maemo Summit (I really like to organize things :) ).

I'm not that 'vocal' as some of the other candidates. I like to have good
discussions and believe that some talk is needed in order to reach good
decisions for the community, but I don't like to ramble too much. Actually
my philosophy of work is "more action and less talk" ;).

I'm a coder not a politic, so I also don't have a agenda ;) , but I do have
a strong willing of help our community that gave me so much. I can promise
that If I'm selected I will work as I can to help our community to improve
even more.

Selected or not, I intend to continue among our community, developing new
initiatives and help the grow of the community.

Questions about me or my intentions are welcome :) .

Thanks.

Cheers,
