“The team will be coordinated by a paid part-time system
administrator. John Carr has kindly offered to act as a coordinator
to get the team going on an interim basis and Codethink is
generously donating his time. However, we need your help to make
this work long term.

“In order to continue our current community plans and hire a
system administrator, we’d like to raise $50,000 through Friends of
GNOME. Thanks to our generous community members we have already
received over $5,000 this year. In addition, Google has put in
$5,000 and Canonical has offered to match the next $10,000. So we
are 40% of the way there already!”
