I'm not exactly sure what the role of a board liaison is, but I do
think that the UK team can only benefit from a mentor from a
previous FOSS4G chair.<br>
<br>
+1 from me. (as a member of the conference committee)<br>

I had wondered about the possibility of you doing the role
too, and I know you would do a good job of keeping the board
informed. But as you say, one of the advantages that I bring
is having the experience of running a previous event. And
also I think there's probably some advantage to having
someone from outside the original proposing team just to
give a bit of an external perspective on things.

<div>Happy to +1 Peter- though don't forget you
already have a built-in liaison- though without

Nottingham. As most of you
probably know, I was Chair
of FOSS4G 2011 in Denver,
and I am originally from the
UK so that gives me an
additional interest in
helping the UK team run a
great conference. I'm not
quite sure of the protocol
for choosing someone for
this role, but I assume it
makes sense to propose a
motion on it at the next
board meeting? If anyone
else would like this role
please speak up, I would be
happy to let someone else do
it :). But equally if nobody
else wants to, I will be
happy to take it on.<br>
