Hello, my name is John Wiegley, and I’d like to request your vote on my upcoming proposal to add a named neuron.

About Me
For a long while I’ve been a contributor to various open source projects and communities, including Emacs, Haskell, Ledger, C++, Common Lisp, Rust and Coq. You could say I’m a technology enthusiast, always looking to learn about new ideas and how they connect to real systems.
I worked at DFINITY from 2018-2022, exiting as Principal Engineer after nearly 4 years. While there, I worked on the execution engine, integration testing, devops infrastructure, transitioning from Haskell to Rust, the NNS, tokenomics, and various other aspects of the system. I knew the full stack fairly well, and had moved to the research side of the organization about a year before I left. This allowed me to work alongside most teams in the organization at one point or another.
Voting
The neuron I’m proposing to name is the first neuron I staked, just a few weeks after initial launch. For most proposals I follow ICP Maximalist, but this is not how I always vote. I have a strong interest in seeing the Internet Computer become more decentralized and friendly to both its stakeholders and the public interest — and this is how I intend to vote.
Disclaimer
Although I plan to always vote, whether manually or by following, I do not commit to any particular platform. I will vote my conscience and hold to what I, personally, think will serve the interests of the network and its users best.
