Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Charter member nomination for Alessio Fabiani

Wholeheartedly support Alessio's nomination +1 ... another person I just assumed was already a member. He has been very instrumental in the growth of the geonode community in the last years and now is a very key contributor to our project. On Fri, Sep 8, 2017 at 4:55 AM, Vasile Craciunescu

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: nomination of Anujit Vanasarochana from Thaialnd

Dear Jody I'm a bit disappointed about this request. Many people were seconded as charter members simply typing +1 and the name of the person seconding. Why do you want more explanation from Hayashi-san and Kenya-san and you didn't ask in other cases? Hayashi-san and Kenya-san are our

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Membership process & email

Hi, A potentially trivial change would be to keep the process the same, but run through the wiki---i.e. use a wiki page as the venue for nominators to log in and update/edit. Freeze the page after a certain date, and now there's an archived copy of the process. Anyone interested in real-time

Hi all, It is great to see the OSGeo community being so active and expanding! The process of proposing and voting new members is an extremely valuable part of that! The downside is that email traffic is exploding around this election. I fear the election processes in the coming years already.

Agree, I don't think I'd like a nomination period + election being carried on with some editings in the wiki and a silent mailing list except by some announcements. On the other hand, answering with a +1 on a mailing list is quick and easy (and annoying if you don't use filters on your email).
