When I founded my first company back in 2000, I was already convinced that a powerful tool is needed for managing content. In 2004, I got in touch with TYPO3 for the first time, and — although the CMS wasn't as cool as today — the system convinced me in a glimpse. Since then, we used the software for quite a lot of websites, and I found myself engaging more and more in the community. I love to talk to different kind of people, either at the events or when speaking to prospects. I am a member of the marketing team, and one of the hosts of the Berlin TYPO3-camp. In both roles I benefit from my studies in media and informatics where I had the chance to speak in front of many people.
Contributing to the TYPO3 Board is a significant responsibility, demanding an average of 0.5 to 1 day per week. This involves (list is not complete and not sorted by amount of work):
Regular board meetings
Virtual and in person meetings with teams and groups
Quartarly multi day in person meetings with the board
sorry for answering so late. I’m pretty much aware of the amount of time. Since I already work in the marketing committee, and attend a lot of meetings regarding TYPO3, it will be more like a shift of time. At the TYPO3 camp in Jena I had the chance to talk to some of the board members, I think I got a better picture of what ressources are needed. I have the ressources to fulfill this.
