Message-ID: <20181113014631.7cf11233@silica.lan> (raw)
Hi,
I've been actively working at the Linux Kernel since 2005, not only as a
developer but also maintaining the Media subsystem with due care. At the
time I started doing it, on my spare time, we started with about 30 patches
merged per Kernel release, having a consistent sustainable grow along this
time. We have now about 400-500 patches per merge window, being one of the
most active development community. I also didn't miss a single merge window.
I've also been participating at the Kernel Summits and on other LF events
for quite a while, and having organized/participated events specific for
the media development since 2007, as I believe that face to face meetings
help a lot to make our community stronger and helps to solve problems and
get consensus on themes that would otherwise require a lot of time and
efforts to do via other means.
I'm feeling that it is now the time to give one step further and to
offer my contributions as a TAB member.
I believe I can add value to TAB, as it sounds clear to me that we
want to give a message that the Kernel community is a welcomed place
for everyone, and not just for the US/EU white people. I believe that
having a South American representative that was very welcomed at the
Kernel community, with does a great job and that strongly believe that
we've being doing a great job over those years to accept good code,
no matter about physical and cultural aspects of the developer will
help to spread the message that we welcome everyone that can write
good Kernel code and can behave inside an open source community.
I also believe that I can contribute to attract more developers that
don't match a specific stereotype and help to conduct discussions
that will help our community to grow on a sane way.
Cheers,
Mauro
