A GNOME Foundation, which oversees the development of the GNOME desktop environment, has announced a change in its executive director, responsible for managing and developing the GNOME Foundation as an organization, as well as interacting with the board of directors, advisory board and members of the organization.
Since October of last year, the position of executive director has been held by Holly Million, who has attracted attention with her diverse range of interests — from producing documentaries and writing works to founding an institute for shamanic arts and practicing phytotherapy. The reason for her departure is cited as a desire to focus on obtaining a PhD in psychology and to concentrate on developing her private practice.
Richard Littauer, a community activist from SustainOSS, one of the leaders of the CURIOSS organization, a community engagement manager at the Open Source Collective, and a participant in the development of Node.js and IPFS projects, has been appointed as the acting executive director of the GNOME Foundation. The plan for finding a permanent executive director is set to be presented at the GUADEC conference, which will take place from July 19 to 24.
