Hello Developers,

Building a vibrant and successful open source project that will attract 
greater participation and use of OpenROAD is both a technical and 
marketing (yikes!) challenge.  Obviously, its not the pure marketing 
kind of thing (magazine ads, billboards, etc.) -- but it is about 
getting the word out and making it real and tangible.  As community 
developers, you are our greatest asset because you have made the most 
significant commitment to OpenROAD and open source.

Our "Member Spotlight" is one way to help make the face of the OpenROAD 
community real.  We've featured some internal staff (Brigitte Duplenne 
and Bill Maimone) and recently a few of your fellow community members 
have stepped up to the plate and allowed us to cast the spotlight in 
their direction.  The (self-described) "usually shy" Kim Ginnerup of 
Bording A/D was in the spotlight when we formally announced the open 
sourcing of OpenROAD.  Now Hervé Leclerc has taken center stage.  Thanks 
guys!

I am asking all of you to consider allowing us to put you in the member 
spotlight at some time this year.  Its very easy .. all I need you to do 
is create your own page on the community wiki (complete with photo).  
The content of your personal wiki page is up to you.  Hopefully, it 
would contain your experiences and interests around Ingres, OpenROAD and 
open source.  Instructions for creating the personal page are on the 
community wiki at:

http://community.ingres.com/wiki/Ingres_OpenROAD_Community#Create_a_Personal_Wiki_Page

I am also willing to "ghost write" a personal page if you don't mind 
being in the spotlight but don't have time (or the desire) to learn the 
wiki (or become a "wikimeister" as Durwin likes to say).

Please drop me an e-mail if you are willing to help the cause!

Regards,

David
