<div class="">I’ve been approached about taking up one of the OGC slots. I too am curious about the benefits and how participation would benefit and play out over the long run. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">I’m a long time open source advocate and a long time meber of a number of the OSGeo list serves. I have a number of related contacts related to the use of open source in local government as well as a long time user and promoter of OGC specifications
for sharing data. I’m also a founding member of a nonprofit dedicated to the promotion and use of OSGeo and OGC practices in general.</div>

<div class="">I’m interested in particpating if a slot is still available.</div>
