I've been a long-time Linux kernel developer of many different parts of
the kernel, and through that work over the years have had to deal with
the interaction between the community and the corporate and legal worlds
that make up the Linux kernel ecosystem.  For the past 13 years, my job
at the Linux Foundation has allowed me to be able to work directly with
a large number of companies and governments to help them learn what it
is to be an integral part of the open source community, which enables
the system as a whole to be stronger and grow together.

In my many years on the TAB, I have been involved in the Linux Driver
statement, the GPLv3 statement, the Code of Conflict work, and the Linux
Kernel Enforcement Statement.  Over the past two years of my
appointment, I worked with cve.org to allow Linux to become a numbering
authority so that we can be in control over our own CVE assignments, and
currently represent Linux on the EU Expert Group Committee for the CRA
legislation.

If I am reelected to the TAB, I will continue to work on these types of
issues, helping bridge the gap that occurs at times between the Linux
community and companies that rely on Linux.  For it is only by working
together that Linux can continue to succeed.
