Kind folks,

The OSGeo is looking for volunteer to be the primary news editor for 
OSGeo.org.

The tasks are as follows:
        o Post the news items to the news archive and a summary to the 
          front page of osgeo.org
        o Maintain the RSS feed for articles
        o Solicit news articles from membership
        o Work with secondary editors for translations to other languages
        o Minor editing of news articles as needed or suggesting changes  
          back to authors
        o Set a theme for articles on a quarterly basis
        o Post news announcements from the board and committees

Why do do this? There are a lot of reasons, here are a few:
        o Meet with and interact with the news makers
        o Put your own spin on things with a "letter from the editor" column
        o Show your dedication to the OSGeo community
        o Hone your skills as a technical editor

Please contact Daniel Brookshier at dbrookshier at collab.net to volunteer
