Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Welcome to the new OSGeo Charter Members!
Welcome to new charter members. OSGeo will sure benefit from each one of you and your work there on. Though officially you only decide (Vote) the board, you can steer the path OSGeo will take through active discussion. Please join the OSGeo advocates and list all you have done and wish to do through User Talk. Perception about where OSGeo should put it's force changes from region to region. It is no secret that The OSGeo is dominated by the mind set of the developed world, in itself there is nothing wrong. So please discuss what you think are your region's needs.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Welcome to the new OSGeo Charter Members!
Hi All, Congrats and welcome to the new charter members!! Thank you Arnulf for taking care of the CRO's duties. Let me just express my satisfaction regarding the approval of the motion to accept them all instead of only 30. It has demonstrated the policy of the current board to be inclusive rather than exclusive, I appreciate it.
