Re: Call for nominations for the Technical Board and Membership Board

Dear Community Council and Ubuntu community,

Please consider my application for re-election to the Technical Board at  https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/call-for-nominations-2024-ubuntu-technical-board


I'm Sebastien Bacher (seb128), member of the Ubuntu Desktop Team and working for Canonical since 2004. I'm also an Ubuntu Archive members since 2007, was member of the DMB between 2022 and 2024 and I've been member of the Ubuntu Technical board for the last 2 years.

While my focus is usually on the Desktop set I also strongly care about the rest Ubuntu and try to help unblocking things are the archive level and for flavors when possible.

Through the years I had the opportunity to contribute to a range of projects in Ubuntu and to acquire a solid technical understanding of the distribution. I'm also actively following/participating on IRC/Matrix/Discourse/Mailing lists/code reviews and sponsoring/translations/etc which gives me a good perspective on the state of the Ubuntu community and userbase.

At Canonical I'm advocating whenever possible for us to have our discussions in the open, to involve the community in our plans and to work upstream.
I would love to see more community members on the board. Let's see if that's happening during that cycle, but if not I will do my best to be a voice representing the community interests on the board.

I think I've been doing a decent job during my previous 2 years on the board. At least I was present and active in most of the meetings, took my share of actions and followed on most of those (I still have some work to do with the archive and release team on documenting their membership process).

I would be honored to keep serving on the Ubuntu Technical Board for the next 2 years if you vote for me.

Cheers,
Sebastien Bacher
