RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] Nominating Geoff Zeiss
I have pleasure to be able to know and work with Geoff for few years. He is a great promoter of OSGeo. When I was thinking of becoming involved in open source, he encouraged me and gave me great advices and now I am very glad he did so. As Tyler wrote, his wide view helps me very often to have better picture of our industry. I strongly believe he is a right person for OSGeo Board of Directors.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Nominating Geoff Zeiss
I nominate Geoff Zeiss for the OSGeo Board of Directors. Geoff doesn't need much of an introduction, being so active on the international conference speaking circuit. He has been a keen promoter of OSGeo from the beginning, in particular through spreading our message during his presentations but even more through helping building connections between OSGeo and others he knows. Geoff has more than 15 years experience developing enterprise geospatial solutions for the utilities, communications, and public works industries. His particular interests include streamlining the infrastructure management workflow at utilities, telecommunications firms and local government, open source geospatial and Web 2.0 and its impact on infrastructure management, and converged BIM/CAD/GIS/3D solutions. Geoff's work experience gives him a strong understanding of management teams and technical aspects of software development by being a chief technology visionary for several companies. His birds-eye view of the larger IT and geospatial landscape is very well informed and respected. His support and encouragement of OSGeo has already been very helpful in several ways, including helping raise sponsorship. As a board member he would bring considerable experience, enthusiasm and a strategic perspective that could help in the years to come. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
