==Candidates==
Candidates should create a Wiki entry at [[#Candidates|Candidates' Wiki submissions]], one entry per candidate, sharing their vision and motivation.
Candidates should read and understand Sugar Labs' [[Sugar_Labs/Governance|Governance]], because such terms bind our behavior as Sugar Labs Oversight Board and all our internal policies and procedures as a Project and as an organization.
Among other terms, please note the Project Management, Communications and Activities terms in the agreement provide that:
2.1. The Oversight Board Will Manage the Project.
2.2. The Project Will Be Free Software.
The terms contemplate that the Oversight Board elects a single individual to communicate with Conservancy (the “Representative”) and shall notify Conservancy promptly following the election of a new Representative.
By publishing your candidacy below, you imply that in case you are elected a Sugar Labs Oversight board member you will honor the agreement terms.
