[maemo-community] Candidature for council election Q2/2016 - mosen

[From: Timo Könnecke, moSushi]

Thanks again reinob for forwarding my email so everything was in time,
Here my 2nd attempt to post to the List after correcting email-adress.

Dear community,

thanks to the nomination i kindly received from eekklund some days ago 
paired with some encouraging PMs exchanged with juiceme, i feel 
confident to step forward and officially enlist as fresh candidate.
This community has grown to my heart and i would be happy to contribute 
in a more organized way.

I feel the need to introduce myself a bit since i might be completely 
unknown to some of the more technical members not following the noobish 
or casual threads i am mostly involved in.
Putting the obvious hurdle upfront, i am not a capable c, qml or qt 
coder and will not be able to contribute in development, apart from beta 
testing or visual and ux optimization.
Maybe you can best estimate my coding and vector imaging "skills" form 
the only serious project i am running on JQuery/Php/Symfony-framework.
It is a live multiplayer bingo game currently fitted to my favourite 
german podcast "Freakshow", in future planed to be a universal bingo 
framework "BingoOS" everyone can use to adapt to his favorite live show 
by simply uploading buzzword svg images and create new instances.

So, how come someone not actively hacking his nXX0 or sailfish device is 
still drawn towards this community you may ask?
Building up my own company in food business since 2004 drew me away from 
the possibility to become a serious programmer but gave me valuable 
lessons in how to succeed as a very small business, overall mediation, 
conflict- and crisis solving skills.
I am dreaming of a world in that everyone is confident enough to succeed 
with his very special skills and be rewarded by society with a proper 
income.
Utopia aside, this community shows what i want to have for the whole 
world already now in the sector of mobile communication.

Cooperation beats competition.
Sustainability instead of planned obsolescence.
Positive thinking vs. utter falsification and crying.
Enthusiasts can accomplish great things.

Apart from the honorable duties i did not have time to look up and would 
be happy if someone hints me where to read, my ideas to contribute are 
as follows.

- Promoting our common cause to the outside world.
- Welcome and introduce newbies.
- try to find a honorable and accepted way of monetization for 
independent developers and projects.
- mediating conflicts with fresh and independent attitude.

As mentioned, running my sushi-business will make it a challenge to fit 
meetings into my constantly changing wicked timetable.
But i hereby promise to always fulfill made commitments in timely manner 
and communicate on problems early.

Have a great day everyone and thanks for all the good times i already 
had here.

kind regards,
Timo Könnecke aka mosen
