Edit:
Seriously? Do I really need to introduce something?
Do people read the Wiki nowadays at all?
If so, here we go:
We came to Maemo.org for one thing: For our beloved Linux devices!
Maemo.org is like a family. Come as guest, stay as family.

Need to say more? It's also the home for our 'cousin device', the Jolla.
Bring all pieces together, and were unstoppable!

But someone has to bring them together, (one of the persons) might as be me, if I will get elected.

Oh and this will happen if I get elected:

''My introduction:

Hi, I am juiceme and I am running for Maemo Community Council again.

Many of you might already know that I have been Maemo Council member for the last three consecutive periods. I also serve as a board member and treasurer of MCeV.
I do have lots of other obligations currently so my time is pressed but being in the Council is such a fun that I decided to run for it again. :)

Originally my spark into joining maemo.org came when I purchased a N9 device, my first linux-based mobile phone. Previously I had owned Symbian devices since early nineties but I never did any SWDEV on those as my interests were on big iron. N9 was the first small embedded device that had the same tools I was used to working with so naturally I was delighted on the possibilities it offered.

I also am a latecomer to N900, since I just got one this year, but to be honest have not yet had time to twiddle with it too much :)
I also have ordered a Neo900 to which I am looking forward to!

My current daily driver is the Jolla device (as I got mine on the very Jolla Launching Gala last november, it's the device #240)
Recently I received my new Black&Orange TOHKBD2 for it which really completes the device nicely to fill the role of ever-present mobile linux terminal!

I have degrees in EE & ME, and some university courses in Maths before dropping out due to having not enough time to do family/work/university simultaneously.
My current occupation is in SW development for Telecommunication Systems at Nokia. (This is the real Nokia I am talking about, nothing to do with Microsoft) Previously I have done RF design, HW design and Test System design.
I have worked in this industry for about 2 decades.

My passion is Free Software, Libre software even, and I am known to be fairly vocal FS advocate on my workplace. I use exclusively Linux/Unix variants in my work and on my own time, and am known for pestering people to drop proprietary/legacy OS'es and switch to Linux.

My SW skills include c, python, test automation and tool creation. I like kernel work and prefer to use console over any GUI's. Usually my first take at anything is to write a bash script''

''Another okay,

I just decided to do it once more.
Put me from undecided to "yeah, I go for it".

But let me state one thing:
I like to serve council one more time and will happily accept if voted.
But take a close look to the other (valuable) candidates, please!

As "requested" by RzR:
*My history:
:- used lots of S40/S60 and other Nokias
:- had used N95 (first true 'smartphone', loved it) and N97 (hated it) before, modded those Symbians a lot and had fun, but N95 should have had touch at (totally) delayed publishment and then there was no real "big development"
:- started to use Maemo5/N900 around summer 2010, still am
:- in summer/autumn 2012 I won a N950 and soon got me a used N9 to not stress the N950, hated Harmattan (due to aegis) and used it as dumbphone, but time by time (latest with open mode kernel) I started to love it too, and still do so
:- 2015 may become year of Neo
:- never touched Android, BB, iOS and will probably never touch the so un-like one. [okay I checked out my friend's ones, and ports to N9 do not count here ;)]

*I am all in for the Maemo e.V. as I like Maemo to survive.
*About Council I still see it necessary to be made of volunteers from (talk.)maemo.org members. They should be elected (of course not be equipped with a "power mandate"), as I do not see another way to catch attention of public and 'shanghai' them else. Further time will tell and maybe council can get abolished at a later stage (but definitely not with a 10 member e.V.!).

What is your take on
- Neo900
- Jolla

Here are my POVs.

- About Neo I would like to see it succeed as soon as possible!

Lucky we are we have the FPTF team (few of the most talented/accepted devs on Maemo) so I am sure we will get Maemo on Neo. But at the same time I am 'concerned' about its company leader's view on Maemo and the joint points between Neo/Maemo. I would like him to change his mind again (of course the Neo will never come equipped with Maemo!). How to?

- About Jolla, I would like to keep my mouth shut. Just so much that I prolly will never touch a device. I liked the project but then they lost me (hardware wise, software/OS getting better, but in the end it was their CC behaviour). [-- I have to admit I still like the idea]

Nevertheless I still have the strong opinion we already do, and should keep to, provide those users a base here on maemo.org!''
