[maemo-community] Community Awards Self-Nomination - Ejas Mudar

[From: ejasmudar]

Hi everybody!

First of all let me introduce myself formally. I am Ejas Mudar (ejasmudar
TMO:http://talk.maemo.org/member.php?u=45467

Twitter:https://twitter.com/#!/mrmodr). 

I joined the Maemo/Meego family in Sept 2010, when I bought the N900 with my
first salary. It was not a light decision. It was the result of extensive
research and reading up on different devices (other devices under
consideration was the Galaxy S, Xperia X10, and Moto Droid). I fell so much
in love with the community that I signed up at TMO even before actually
purchasing the device.

One of my earliest memory in TMO was interacting with Thomas Perl in his
Gpodder thread. I had made a 
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=819819#post819819 feature request and
voila a very similiar feature was there in the next version. That was the
first time my eyes were opened to the amazingly cool developers and
community around maemo. Its two years later and I'm still in love with the
maemo community and the N900 (maybe even more than my N9?). 

Anyway, I'm getting carried away. I'd like to nominate myself for the
Community Award for either the N9 or N950 (N950 preffered)


Here are some of my humble contributions to the community, from what I
remember:

form a plan  to get more closed source blobs rewritten for N900 (it didnt
work out), maintaining a level-headed and positive attitude about the
future, helping out other members, etc)


I know that I'm in the company of GIANTS here in the running for the
Community Award, but it would be nice to be awarded a device, esp as my N9
