the board is currently 5 members. i don't off the top of my head recall
if that's
in the bylaws or part of the standing rules (things specified in the
standing rules
are much easier to change.)

Hi Martijn (and other board members),
Can you talk about the responsibilities of the board as well as the
time commitment that is expected? That would be helpful for people who
are considering running.
And the board is limited at 5 members, is that correct?

Hi talk-us,
Here's a brief update from the Chapter Board on the upcoming
elections. As you know, the board is elected on a one year
mandate. Our term ends on October 13 of this year. This is still a
little while away, but we'd like all of you to think about the
next year of the OSM US Chapter, and who should be on the board to
represent you.
Perhaps you are thinking of yourself? You should be! Being on the
board does not require superhero skills, just a dedication to
OpenStreetMap in the United States and a determination to put your
ideas into action.
If you want to nominate yourself for a position on the board, head
over to
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Foundation/Local_Chapters/United_States/Elections/2013
and add yourself. It helps a lot if you write a brief manifesto,
outlining why you want to be on the board and what you would aim
to accomplish. This will help voters make an informed choice.
We have more voting members than ever before (thanks in part to
the membership drives around the previous SOTM US conferences) so
the upcoming elections should be interesting and important!
We will continue to follow up with more details about the
elections as they emerge. In the mean time, don't hesitate to
voice your questions or concerns here or at [email protected]

On behalf of the OSM US chapter board,

Martijn van Exel
President
