Re: [oniro-wg] Oniro Working Group Elections Announcement - 2026 - 2027

["Francesco Pham (A)" <francesco.pham1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone,

I would like to self-nominate for the Committer Member Representative seat on the Oniro Working Group.

As many of you know, I currently serve in this role and also as the Oniro Project PMC Lead. It has been a privilege to represent the committer community, and I would welcome the opportunity to continue doing so.

For context, my contributions to the project span several areas:

• Oniro support packages for porting the platform to emulator and devices

• The Oniro IDE VSCode extension

• Cross-platform framework adaptations for the platform (Capacitor)

• Application porting (VLC)

• OpenHarmony GitHub mirrors

• Documentation and CI pipelines

• Reviewing and merging contributions from the community

Through this work I have gained a broad perspective on the project's technical landscape, and through the committer representative role I have built a good understanding of how the working group operates. I would like to keep putting that experience to use on behalf of the committer community.

Thank you, and looking forward to continuing the journey together.

Best regards,

Francesco
