<br>
After a period of three weeks, we close the membership process to<br>
confirm and share the results.<br>
<br>
*All* the candidates[1][2] are accepted as all of them:<br>
<br>
- were nominated by an existing charter member;<br>
- were seconded by at least one charter member;<br>
- no veto votes registered.<br>
<br>
Hence, it is our pleasure to welcome our 78 candidates to the OSGeo<br>
Charter Membership, increasing its size to a total of 390 individuals. Congratulations!<br>
<br>
New members, we encourage you all to update your wiki profiles with the<br>
Charter Member badge[3], adding yourselves to the category[4] and<br>
finally if you have not yet done so, add your profile to the OSGeo<br>
Advocates list[5].<br>
<br>
We will inform the board for formal acceptance of the list, update the official list[6], pass to the secretary the revised contacts, and subscribe the new members to the charter-members list[7]<br>
as soon as possible.<br>
