Ask questions to the candidates running for the GNOME Foundation elections

Gnome Foundation
Gnome Foundation

Membership Committee will announce 2005 Fall election candidates today or tomorrow. Before the voting starts, a debate will happen. We usually send questions to the candidates to launch the debate. If you want to see some discussion about what is important to you, here's your chance to make it happen! Of course, you'll still be able to directly ask questions to the candidates by posting them on foundation-list.

Please ask one question per post (and no more). The 10 best questions will be selected from this blog and previous years questions and sent to the candidates. So you may want to look at the questions from previous elections, at GnomeDesktop.org. As with the recent referandum over board size there will be 7 people on board. Since this will make it harder to choose from all hard working candidates, it's better to get their ideas over different subjects to make foundation members' decision easier.

Note that being on the board of the GNOME Foundation is not a technical job, so please try to avoid posting questions about software development.

Handy website listng the candidates and "campaign" speeches?

Is there a nice little website that lists the names of candidates together with their "why you should vote for me" statements?
