Thanks for those kind words and the nomination, but I respectfully decline.
I don't think that I can give the community the time and energy that
an OGB membership would require.

I would like to see the community band together and consolidate their
votes behind one or two non-Sun-employees candidates - because I
believe that the OGB has lost a lot of its influence and power and I
see more changes afoot to weaken it even further - which I think is
detrimental to the overall project.

I'll continue to contribute to the project via Genunix.Org etc.

Regards,
