My name is Chris Wright and I am standing for re-election as a member of the Linux Foundation's Technical Advisory Board. I've been involved with Linux kernel developement for over 10 years now, spanning areas of security, Linux -stable tree, and virtualization. I currently represent virtualization interests on the TAB. I have advocated for and been involved with the TAB since its inception roughly 5 years ago. I got involved out of an interest in ensuring that the (at the time) OSDL's resources were put to more constructive use for the Linux kernel community. As a technical voice of reason, the TAB provides input to the Linux Foundation to help guide its efforts. Over time, I believe the TAB has helped the LF build more constructive communication between the different communities it represents (developers, vendors, end users). As a member of the TAB, I am often called upon to represent the community in LF events (LinuxCon, Collaboration Summit, End User Summit). You'll typically find me there leading discussions on virtualization and looking for ways to improve the Linux in that context. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to represent on the TAB since it began. I'd be honored to continue. thanks, -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
