For the record, the OSGeo Board was not involved in the FOSS4G video debate (most of those 47 messages were at the OSGeo Conference Committee level, where they should happen); I saw that and quickly motioned to the Board to approve, so the Conference Committee can move on. The board quickly voted and agreed to let the Conference Committee decide a proper method for future years.

Good to see we have this election wave going.
@Michael, I'd bet you would be a good discussion moderator for an election 
debate at FOSS4G 2016 !
Of course this all closely related to an other thread that are going on ("osgeo is 
becoming irrelevant")


I'd like to ask our board candidates what their opinion is on the current 
relationship between the Board and the OSGeo-committees.
In order to make it easier my observation: I get the impression that the Board 
spends much time on practical issues (such as the 47 mails regarding the 200 
dollar grant for a Vimeo Pro account) which easily could be delegated to 
committees. (finance, website, marketing, conference etc.). Thus the Board can 
concentrate on more strategical matters (and keep an eye on the progress in the 
committees)


Regards,

GJ

ps. 32 hours until the closure of the ballot-boxes...
