<div class="">I'm away at the moment and then have a FOSS4G UK to help
organise 14-16 June. If no one steps up to draft something I
will do it after our uk event<br class="">

Hi Sanghee,<br class="">
You do raise valid points about being clear about conference
committee process.<br class="">
However, no one has volunteered to write such a process. Maybe
you would like to do so? OSGeo is a "do ocracy".<br class="">
Without such a process documented, I suggest that we default
to OSGeo's standard voting process across committees.
Questions such as adding a new member is put to the committee.
The committee votes, and decision made based on those votes.<br class="">
Based on that logic, if no one volunteers to write a process,
I suggest we continue with the vote to decide if Andrea should
join the conference committee.<br class="">
<br class="">
Warm regards, Cameron<br class="">
<br class="">

Dear Cameron and all,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Before voting on this, I think we need to
agree on the governance model of conference committee or
how to run the conference committee. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Maxi expressed his wish to join the conference
a couple of months ago. However there was no enough
discussion whether we should accept him or not or who can
be a member of conference committee. And his asking was
just dropped. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Now Cameron suddenly has proposed to invite
Andrea to the conference even though there was no explicit
her wish to join the committee.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Actually I’m ok with inviting any person to
the committee who can give fresh mind and contributions to
FOSS4G conference. However I think there should at least
minimum fair guidance who can be a member of the
conference to reduce any other misunderstanding. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Conference Committee is very unique in OSGeo
in terms of very closed membership. That’s why we need to
be more transparent and fair. To somebody, conference
committee can be seen as 'Benevolent Oligarchy’</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’m writing this not because Andrea works at
LocationTech but because I feel some unfairness. And there
are efforts to increase the communications between OSGeo
and LocationTech at the board level. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Cheers, </div>

Conference Committee,<br class="">
I'd like to propose that we invite Andrea Ross to
join the OSGeo Conference Committee.<br class="">
+1 from me, Cameron Shorter.<br class="">
<br class="">
My reasoning is that Andrea has a lot of
experience running conferences, especially through
his involvement with LocationTech, and there are
synergies that could be gained by aligning OSGeo
and LocationTech effectively.<br class="">
<br class="">
I note that there have been concerns aired
previously about LocationTech competing to take
over OSGeo's flagship FOSS4G event. I'm of the
opinion that we should be mindful of this, but we
should discuss the options openly and I believe we
can find a solution favourable for all. An
effective way to support this conversation is to
invite Andrea to be one vote among our conference
committee.<br class="">
<br class="">
Warm regards, Cameron<br class="">

It's an opportunity for the Conference Committee and interested people to meet face to face, we could discuss some of the topics on the 'outstanding list' <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Conference_Committee_2016_Priorities" class="">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Conference_Committee_2016_Priorities</a> and we could start preparing the call for 2018
Anyone interested?
