Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Charter member nomination: Gretchen Peterson

2017-09-08 Thread Kristin Bott 
Additional details behind my +1 (was asked to explain why I seconded...)

I think that Gretchen has done a significant amount of work in
public-facing cartography / education and making both beautiful and
effective maps more accessible to folks outside of the usual / stock
audiences for such things (through: books she's written, blog posts,
Twitter, etc).

And, since part of the call for charter members involves diversity... to
continue singing the same old song (see Aleda Freeman nomination +1
follow-up; Tina Cormier nomination +1 follow-up) I don't believe that the
list of Charter Members is representative of the user community of OSGeo
projects; I believe we're skewed on a couple of demographic axes. One of
those is gender. Let's work on that.

Can provide more/additional justification/rationale/input/thoughts as
needed; let me know.

cheers -

 I would like to nominate Gretchen Peterson for OSGeo Charter
 Membership. Gretchen is a cartographer, author, and educator whose
 contributions to the community have impacted many of us - speaking
 personally, I can say that everything I know about designing good
 maps in QGIS, I learned from Gretchen. Most recently, Gretchen is
 co-author of the book "QGIS Map Design".

Additional information, since I did not provide any reasons for my support.

Gretchen has done wonders for open source advocacy and outreach, her blog
posts and twitter activity reach and inspire so many. She is also a
supportive member of our community helping out with the recent
website/rebranding most notably with the cartography employed for the
website and style guide.
