Dear CRO,<br>
<br>
I would like to nominate Jody Garnett to serve on the OSGeo Board.<br>
<br>
Jody is a man who has a depth of experience with the OSGeo foundation,<br>
right from getting his hands dirty writing code, through to setting up<br>
and managing projects, through to evangelising at conferences and<br>
workshops, as well as chairing OSGeo committees.<br>
<br>
He steps up to tackle the hard problems, provides insightful feedback<br>
and advice, as well ask taking on the less exciting tasks to get things<br>
done. This depth of can-do practical experience will serve OSGeo well if<br>
Jody were voted onto the OSGeo board.<br>
<br>
For background: Jody chairs the OSGeo Incubation committee, was on the<br>
FOSS4G 2007 and FOSS4G 2009 organising committees, has presented<br>
regularly at conferences and workshops, is on the Project Steering<br>
Committees for UDig, GeoTools, GeoServer, and is a regular contributor<br>
to numerous OSGeo email lists.<br>
<br>
Warm regards,<br>
Cameron Shorter<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
