[Talk-us] Presenting your new OSM-US board

2014-10-15 Thread Toby Murray
Voting closed on the OSM-US board election last night. Michael Collinson
and I acted as election observers and we are both satisfied that the
election was carried out properly. So today I am happy to announce our new
board members:

Alyssa Wright
Martijn van Exel
Alex Barth
Ian Dees
Eleanor Tutt

More information and some notes from Michael about the election are up on
the openstreetmap.us blog:
http://openstreetmap.us/2014/10/election-results/

Please join me in thanking the outgoing board members for their service to
the OSM community in the US over the past year and welcome the new members
to the challenges ahead for next year.

Thank you, Toby! I am excited and honored to serve on the board for another
year with this great team. Let me also take this opportunity to thank you
and Michael Collinson, the other independent elections observer, for the
important role you played in ensuring these elections were conducted in a
proper and fair manner. We could not have done this without you.

Let me also join you in thanking the outgoing board members, Mele and
Kathleen, for their invaluable service on the board! I have enjoyed working
with both of you immensely.

And, I want to thank all the candidates for running! We had the strongest
ballot I can remember and whatever the outcome would have been, it would
have resulted in a great 2014-2015 board of directors.

Last, but certainly not least, I want to thank all of you who took the time
to vote and be a part of these elections by engaging in the discussions on
this mailing list and elsewhere.

The coming weeks we will be busy with a few things. Firstly, the transition
phase getting the new members up to speed. Secondly, finalizing the State
Of The Map US 2015 bid selection process. And finally, working our way
through the final administrativia involved with becoming a 501(c)(3)
registered charity.

Best,
Martijn

Thanks to Toby and Michael for overseeing the elections, and
congratulations to the incoming OSM U.S. Board. I'm looking forward to
seeing where the organization goes this year, and plan to be involved
regardless!

Congrats to the board and everyone who voted!

Don't forget to keep up the momentum with the upcoming OSMF elections.
Richard Weait has a great writeup here:
https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/osmf-talk/2014-October/002683.html

It should be noted that this US election looks like it had more voters than
last year's OSMF election. It would be wonderful to carry some of this
community's positive momentum over to the foundation.

-Randy
