Next GNOME Foundation Elections
As people probably remember, the current GNOME Foundation Board was elected to serve until June 30th, 2009. We changed the end date from December 31th to June 30th so that the new board could have a face-to-face meeting at the very beginning of its term, during GUADEC. This face-to-face meeting is most useful to energize the board and make things go faster, so it really makes sense to have it occur at the beginning of a board term.
Based on the past elections, I would guess the vote will start in May and end at the beginning of June. And this means it's time for people to start thinking hard if they want to run for the elections.
People usually don't think they can run for the elections; maybe they feel they're not involved enough in GNOME, or they don't feel like they are able to help, or there's some other random reason to not run. Most of the time, that's just wrong.
