Perhaps I missed it, but with the exception of Paolo, I don't see any 
statements from the nominees themselves?  We've done that in past years, and I 
think it has been helpful to some of us.

Ah, sorry, I scanned the first couple too quickly then jumped to the end too 
fast.  But, still, there's little or nothing there from too many of the 
candidates.

By this metric, so far Daniel and Paolo get my votes...

Michael,

I certainly think this would be a great opportunity for folks to also
suggest some issues of interest to them.  Things that they would like
a reaction to from potential board members.

I did struggle a bit with what to put in my statement.  As an incumbent
it was not obvious to me that I have particular new issues to spearhead
in the coming years, though obviously I hope to continue with many existing
initiatives.

I am pleased to see a strong slate of candidates.

Best regards,

Hi,

Unfortunately, I posted my nomination of Lorenzo Becchi too quickly
without receiving clear confirmation that Lorenzo is willing to become
a member of the board.
Lately, I have clarified it with Lorenzo and unfortunately, if elected,
Lorenzo would not be able to accept this position.

Dear Lorenzo and the OSGeo Community, please, accept my apologies
for causing confusions.
