<div dir="ltr">Hi all!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am really interested in continue helping the community to shape it's vision for the following 10-15 years. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I believe society in general, needs urgently to rescue respect for the voice of women and young girls, specially in free/libre-culture/software projects.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That said I have found that helping out is easier when your voice also has a vote attached.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That's why I present my candidacy for the commingling board elections. Sebastian has shared with me he has no time to be part of this years election (is it 3 seats? is it for 2017-2019?) committee, so I ask all the other members to please set the time
line in tomorrow's meeting. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you all for the time!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Blessings and regards,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
