At the time, it was mind blowing to get a low cost PC, install the Slackware Linux distribution and get a computer that outperformed the Silicon Graphics stations of the laboratory. From these early days it became quite clear to me that Open Source was not really about the software, but about the people who create, share, and improve the software, and about the people who share their time, knowledge and skills to help each other grow and get things done. It was thanks to friends and colleagues that I got to learn how to reconfigure and recompile the Linux Kernel, to be able to use that new Voodoo graphic card in those early days. That lesson remains very clear. The software is only a tangible side-product of the real strength of Open Source: The Community. 172 + 173 +I'm running for the OSI Board because I want to give back to the larger open source community. OSI is a pillar for the entire open source movement, and I would like to serve in order to further OSI's mission of open source education, advocacy and threading the fabric of the community among individuals, and public and private organizations. 174 + 175 +I have been 176 + 177 +* Research Assistant Professor at [[UNC Chapel-Hill Neurosurgery Division>>url:http://www.med.unc.edu/neurosurgery]], working on software for image guided surgery (1999-2001). 178 + 179 +I am currently: 180 + 181 +* [[Technical Leader at Kitware Inc>>url:http://www.kitware.com/company/team/ibanez.html]], (since 2002) 182 +* Director of Open Source Community Development at [[OSEHRA>>url:http://www.osehra.org/]]. 183 + 184 +Blog frequently at: 185 + 186 +* [[opensource.com>>url:http://opensource.com/users/luis-ibanez]] 187 +* [[Kitware Blog>>url:http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/user/6]] 188 +* [[OSEHRA Blog>>url:http://www.osehra.org/search/node/ibanez]] 189 + 190 +This advocacy activity led to 191 + 192 +* [[Community Moderator at opensource.com>>url:http://opensource.com/life/13/2/new-community-moderator-program]] 193 +* [[People Choice Award at opensource.com>>url:http://opensource.com/life/13/2/2013-community-award-winners]] (for frequent contributions to the site)(details [[here>>url:http://opensource.com/health/13/4/community-spotlight-luis-ibanez]]). 194 + 195 +I have found that Education is an integral part of Open Source life, and that a great deal of work remains to be done in order to reach the full potential of open source in higher education.

That interest is ultimately rooted in having been an enthusiastic user of free software (particularly Linux distributions) for some 16 years, but it has also been shaped by many years of experience as a legal counselor for open source project developers, open source/free software nonprofits, and commercial entities involved in open source use and development. 233 + 234 +For the past 5.5 years I have been the open source legal specialist at Red Hat, the world's largest provider of open source-based products to enterprises and a company whose engineering methodology is thoroughly tied to community open source project development. During 2005-2008 I was counsel at the Software Freedom Law Center. At SFLC I represented a number of nonprofit clients, but my principal client was the Free Software Foundation and my work focused on the drafting of GPLv3, LGPLv3 and AGPLv3 with Richard Stallman and Eben Moglen. 235 + 236 +I am a frequent speaker on topics at the intersection of open source, law and policy, to diverse technical, legal and business audiences. During the past year, in my free time, I have been leisurely leading a project to transparently draft a new, simple and innovative copyleft license, [[copyleft-next>>url:http://github.com/richardfontana/copyleft-next]]. Though still a long way from a 1.0.0 release, it has already proved a useful opportunity to explore new ideas in open source licensing and the process of public and collaborative license drafting. 237 + 238 +**Why I am running** 239 + 240 +To continue its successful growth, open source must rest on firm foundations of legal and philosophical principle. In the absence of much helpful legislative and judicial guidance, community authorities like the OSI play a critical role in establishing and strengthening the legal framework that allows open source development to work. The OSI must continue its historical central mission of maintaining, interpreting and applying the Open Source Definition, and I believe my experience will enable me to make significant contributions to this work. It relates closely to my efforts with Tom Callaway to maintain the influential lists of [[acceptable and unacceptable licenses>>url:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main?rd=Licensing#Software_License_List]] for the Fedora Project. I would like to see the OSI increase its activism in opposing “open-washing”, the dilution of the meaning of open source. 241 + 242 +I have at times critiqued the OSI's past record in license approvals. A good sense of my constructive criticism, and the kind of perspective I would bring to the OSI, can be gleaned from my LinuxCon NA 2012 talk “The Tragedy of the Commons Gatekeepers” (covered in [[LWN>>url:https://lwn.net/Articles/516896/]] and recorded on the Free as in Freedom [[podcast>>url:http://faif.us/cast/2012/oct/10/0x33/]]). I believe strongly that the OSI's currency is integrity and consistency. License approval decisions and rejections must be grounded in the Open Source Definition, with public rationale, but we should also determine whether any elements of the OSD itself need to be reformed. 243 + 244 +The OSI should play a more active role in defining norms of community project development that go beyond the mostly legal criteria of the OSD. Perhaps an open community development definition is something for which the OSI could exercise authoritative stewardship. This is particularly important at a time when an exciting new wave of corporate involvement in collaborative projects is occurring, typified by such projects as OpenStack and OpenDaylight (in both of which I have participated in legal policy committees). 245 + 246 +My experiences have given me an inclusive vision of what the open source and free software community ought to be. The software freedom community is a big tent, spanning many ideological views and policy interests. I would like to continue the commendable work of the current OSI leadership in building bridges to free software community interests that for years were in tension with it, and my particular professional background gives me the credibility to engage in this work. The OSI's authoritative reputation in the commercial world is one of its most important assets, and I would like to help the OSI build upon it to strengthen the connections between the commercial world and developer communities. 247 + 248 +**How to contact me** 249 + 250 +Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I'm [[@richardfontana>>url:https://twitter.com/richardfontana]] on Twitter. 251 + 252 + 253 + 141 141 Candidates should be aware of the [[responsibilities>>doc:OSI Board of Directors.Responsibilities of the Board]] expected of OSI Board members.
