[OSGeo-Discuss] 2010 Charter Member Selection

2010-11-12 Thread Paul Ramsey
OSGeo members,

The 2010 process is complete, and the new charter members are, in
alphabetical order:

• Alex Mandel
• Andreas Hocevar
• Anne Ghisla
• Astrid Emde
• Danilo Furtado
• Gavin Fleming
• Hirofumi Hayashi
• Jo Cook
• Maria Brovelli
• Milena Nowotarska

I apologize for not sending out more process reminders, but I was on
the road in Japan and not really watching the clock. However, the
voting period has now passed, and over 50% of the membership
participated in the selection process.

Thanks to all the nominees who took the time to write to the discuss
list about their nomination.

A significant number of voters expressed that the number of slots was
not sufficient given the number of quality nominees, which is an issue
I will refer to the Board for next year's process.

Thanks for your votes,

Paul Ramsey

Congratulations to all those who were elected. Now get to work. ;-)

But, most of all, thanks to everyone who ran for the limited number of
positions. Please take comfort in the knowledge that you are just as
important and able to bring about change as any charter member (all
that a charter member can do is vote for new charter members). Please
continue doing whatever you were doing that motivated you to run for
the position of a charter member. Your presence worldwide, your
involvement, and your work, be it developing code, using code and
helping other adopt it, evangelizing adoption in organizations,
training, awareness building, these are all the basic building blocks
of the OSGeo community.

Thanks for taking the time off your work, wearing your heart on your
sleeve, and telling everyone what you do. Please continue do it.

Hi,
I want to join the congratulations to all new Charter Members, thanks
for standing up and showing this active support!

Another big thank you goes to all who have been nominated but could not
get elected due to the limitations in our process. To me all nominees
would have been a great addition underlining the great diversity of
people deeply involved with OSGeo. As Puneet sais I hope that you will
contineu to actively support OSGeo as so many regular members do.

Last but not least I want to thank our Chief Returning Officer Paul for
taking on the responsibility of organizing the Charter Member elections
again.

Looking forward to another exciting year of OSGeo.

Have fun,
Arnulf.
