Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Vote for OSGeo Board of Directors elections 2015 extended
Dear Gert-Jan, For sure we will check this year with all the charter members that did note vote. Checking with all of them it's really no easy task. It took me many many hours in the last two days just to send messages to almost 100 people (most of them on other channels than the e-mail used in their connection with OSGeo). But, you are right, somehow we should have a method to make sure we are connected with all our charter members.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Vote for OSGeo Board of Directors elections 2015 extended
Hi Jorge, I know that was not necessary to go that far. For sure I would not expect the same from the next CRO. Anyway, I felt that it's necessary to clarify the status of some of our members. It's clear that some of the old members don't have enough time these days for OSGeo. Also, we have members with outdated contacts. And, finally, some members needed a push to react :) Best, Vasile On 9/28/15 9:07 PM, Jorge Sanz wrote: On 28 September 2015 at 19:52, Vasile Craciunescuwrote: Dear Gert-Jan, For sure we will check this year with all the charter members that did note vote.
