* '''Mission Statement:''' To further the goals of the project and Free Software in general by helping enable contributors to bring the highest quality and most diverse collection of software to the distribution. I'm fully committed to the goals of Free Software, for ideological, but also primarily technical reasons.
A set of questions for nominees is prepared by existing FESCo members. Nominees are requested to answer the selected questions using '''[https://pagure.io/fedora-pgm/elections-interviews/new_issue?template=FESCo-Election private issue in Pagure]'''. In compliance with Fedora Council [https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/135 decision #135] nominees not having completed their interviews (as a private issue in Pagure) are excluded from the list of nominees.
* '''Past work summary:''' I've been a Fedora user since RHL 7.1, and an active packager since 2007, as well as a sponsor and member of the FPC.  I initially focused on games and php applications, but have expanded to other things over time.  I also encounter and deal with many of the issues we encounter as a project in the course of my day job.
* '''Future plans:''' Ideally, I'd like to find ways to encourage and educate new contributors.  I've sponsored a few new packagers, but would like to help shorten the time from first interest to active packager, and can only do so much on my own.  I also have ideas and opinions on many areas FESCO address, and would like to contribute what experience I have to those conversations.


== [[User:mmaslano|Marcela Mašláňová]] (mmaslano) ==
* '''Mission statement:''' Fedora should be a solid platform for development. I'd like to see FESCo as strict reviewer of new features, which can be disruptive for the distribution. FESCo should guide and help with global changes. But it shouldn't create new processes, it should rather review old ones.
* '''Past work summary:''' Red Hat employee since 2006, maintaining about 150 packages, mainly Perl modules.
* '''Future plans:''' Currently, I'm working on Dynamic Software Collection, which could provide more versions of software in the distribution. I'd like to co-operate on creation of better scripts and guidelines for (mass-)rebuilds.


== [[Miloslav Trmač]] (mitr) ==
== Candidate Nominations ==
Please nominate just by Name, IRC nick and FAS account ID.


* '''Mission Statement:''' Make Fedora a more attractive/fun distribution for developers to use and work on.
You may self-nominate. If you wish to nominate someone else, please consult with that person ahead of time.
* '''Past work summary:''' Contributor since RHL times, worked on many things including tcsh i18n/signal handling rewrite, initscripts, pyrpm, switch from MD5 to SHA-256 hashes in RPM and other places, system-config-audit, audit-viewer, TTY input auditing, volume_key, encrypted disk support in libvirt, kernel's crypto interface, and the Fedora signing server. Used to be a heavy-duty translator into Czech.
 
* '''Future plans:''' Linux is primarily shaped by things that happen upstream. In the limited capacity that FESCo has to influence it, I want to generally favor policies that allow quick bug->fix turnaround time, allow more enhancements into released versions of Fedora, and ask for clear and time-definite migration paths when subsystem replacements are proposed (at least within the default spin). Outside of FESCo my interest is in improving security of Fedora as a whole, without requiring manual work for each individual package.
