Hi all,
I would like to nominate myself for the next MC of TDF.
I am Muhammet Kara from Turkey, member/translator/developer/advocate of various FOSS projects since early 2000s, and I have been contributing to LibreOffice in various ways since 2016, including code contributions, translation, qa work, marketing/advocacy, taking part in the Design Team as a developer…
Although I would like to see LibreOffice and other FOSS projects flourish in every aspect, I have a secret agenda of attracting more developers (especially cs students from universities) to our community, and helping maintain/increase its diversity. -Oh, it is no more a secret! :)-
Some other FOSS projects I contribute(d) to:
-
GNOME
-
GNOME Turkish Translation Team (coordinator)
-
GNOME Engagement Team (member)- KDE
-
Retired translator- The (GNU) Translation Project
-
Translator- Fedora
-
Bug reporting
-
Advocacy
-
Translation

My statement:
"
A member of this great community from Turkey. Working on LibreOffice as a developer, marketer, tester, translator… Trying to spread the love of FOSS around here, by running workshops, giving talks and coordinating local teams, in the hope of bringing fresh blood into our community. I would be happy to play my part in making this already great community even greater. If elected, I will focus on diversity, and making our processes smoother for all.
