This is my formal acceptance and request for participating in the upcoming council election.

My Maemo account username is NielDK and IRL Niel Nielsen. I have been an active member of this community for a good four years, and have been member of the council previously. Possibly it was the hardest time, since it was the transition from leaving a community that was regulated and sponsored by Nokia, and we had to form a council and set initial regulations / election of a legal board of director. I did not succeed very well during this period. There were a lot of internal disputes and fights between concil member / board members and directors. However, we got things started, and the council that was elected for the next period did a very good job in sorting out the mess. It is sad to see that none apparently wants to continue, but hopefully the next council will do even better. Secondly, why I am not happy about my period, was due to a load of personal issues, which I can say now have come to a (good) end, and I am getting hold of my life, and gaining more time to again be active member. I have contibuted within this community as an active member, helping other members with issues, solving problems that arose from Nokia stopping support for N9xx device. Also, I have been developing applications, utilities and libraries, that all now reside on openrepos - another great initiative to solve the lack of support/updates from Nokia. For the most, my work have been consisiting in developing improvements to kernel, but also tools and libraries that is useful for pentesting. I hope that I will be considered, and do feel asured that the next council will step up, and further improve our community and support for our devices, to have a life beyond the expectations of Nokia.
