You are living in China. We don't have many Contributors in China and therefore our Chinese list with Advovates at open-source events is not really long[0] with 1 Advocate. That is what I meant that we need more Advocates at open-source events.
There may not be many Chinese people listed on that old crusty wiki page but as a champion of the openSUSE Asia community I have to strongly object to any suggestion that "we don't have many Contributors in China" We have a lot, and I hope none of them are insulted by the suggestion from a Board candidate that they don't exist. One of my most exhilerating times as a community member was meeting so many of them in Bejing in 2014 (Group photo linked below). https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3928/15378270997_b59755f92a_b.jpg While I haven't been able to see them as often as I'd have linked in the years since, I see evidence of the fine work of our Chinese contributors in every openSUSE Asia conference since and their fingerprints all over our project, from code, to creating art, to helping conference booths across the world. You may be quiet and unassuming enough for Sarah to have missed you but I want this public record to show that I know you exist, love the work you are doing, and I'm sure you'll help us welcome Ariez to the community with open arms. 切平安, Richard -- Richard Brown Linux Distribution Engineer - Future Technology Team Phone +4991174053-361 SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Geschäftsführer: Felix Imendörffer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
