[Ksummit-discuss] Self nomination : mchehab

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

I'd like to nominate myself for the core discussions. As the maintainer of one
of the most active subsystem (media), there are lots of discussions there that
are relevant for me, and related to the maintainership process/workflow. 

I'm particularly interested on the recruiting and documentation discussions, 
as we always need more people to work at the subsystem. I guess I can help
with the documentation discussions, as I think we're doing a great job at
the media subsystem keeping the userspace API well documented
(Documentation/DocBook/media, e. g. http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/),
and also keeping a reasonable well documentation of the Kernel internal API, at
least for the main media frameworks (at Documentation/video4linux). 

I have a personal interest on security, as I managed to get a CISSP
certification years ago, when I used to maintain the security team of
a big carrier. 

I would like to participate on any GPL discussions. From time to time,
we receive large chunks of code from other systems that are re-licensed
as GPL. Also, from time to time, we heard that people might be using our
code on some proprietary stuff.

I may also give my view about mainlining the Kernel on a mobile device,
as I've been active at the Tizen community, and recently got a
maintainership at the Tizen on Yocto trees.

Regards,
Mauro
