Yes thanks to Jaakkoh, Boris and Kate to have done so efficiently this process 
of nomination of the new members.

Decision was taken that each member could propose only one person. We then have 
collectively assured that those people deeply involved in HOT actions have the 
opportunity to play a role in the orientations as well as the many actions of 
the organization becoming part of the membership.

Congratulation to the 18 new members and welcome in the HOT Membership.


 
Pierre

Thanks jaakkoh for your leading role in this nomination as well as those who 
supported you in the process. 
 
I'd like to join you in welcoming the new members from the HOT community into 
the organization and look forward to the amazing things that together, 
collectively, we will all be able to achieve in 2014 
 
Best,  
Nico

>My "HOT story":
>Originally
 from Finland, moved to the US (DC) over 10 years ago. I got involved 
with HOT during the Haiti earth quake of 2010 and when I lived in Haiti 
for 3 years. I've done most of my mapping in Haiti and Dominican 
Republic and I've worked in the field with HOT (in Haiti) and pitched 
into developing some new projects for HOT. 
>Currently living in 
Nicaragua trying to learn Spanish and getting engaged with the local 
mapping community (http://mapanica.net).
>HOT is hot because I think that (it's obvious by now that) Open(Street)Mapping 
>can have a huge positive impact in humanitarian work and making (economic) 
>development work better.
