[OSGeo-Discuss] Election update...

[Tyler Mitchell (OSGeo)]

Board election votes have been pouring in, but we still have many  
outstanding voters (25).  If you are a charter member and have not  
voted, please do so soon.  The election wraps up end of next week but  
hopefully sooner if all votes come in.

More info below if you haven't seen it already.
