<p>+1 for process suggested by John.</p>
<p>I will contribute toward board discussions while I think I'm
adding value. I've held multiple positions within OSGeo in the
past, and think it appropriate for me to make space for others to
shine, (and also be realistic about the time I can commit). I'm
not the right person for one of the central board roles, but happy
to hover around the edges.</p>
<p>Cheers, Cameron<br>

<div dir="ltr">Thanks John. And great to see Alex and Adam putting
their hands up already.
<div>Seems reasonable to me for people to express intent for the
inaugural board now, with official nominations for positions
occurring later. I agree with the concern of missing potential
candidates.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm also incredibly excited by what we can achieve as an
entity with some structure and clarity. Keen on helping in
some capacity so might discuss at GeobeersMEL tonight.</div>

<div>I’d be happy to join the board as a regular member;
and/or nominate as chair or co-chair. I don’t have a great
election pitch - I am also on the ‘board’ (steering
committee) of another organisation undergoing the same
process right now (earth observation Australia), which
might be helpful experience - and it’s super exciting to
be helping embody the culture of this community in a
thing, and want to help get the foundations sorted. Having
said that, my ego isn’t attached to any of it, so if
there’s a better candidate then all is fine and I’m less
busy :D

<div dir="ltr">I don't see any problem at all with people
expressing their interests now. But the board will be
filling the roles, and that can't happen until the board
actually comes into existence. I suspect there's not
enough time to fill roles before Christmas, without
rushing and potentially missing folks who are
disengaging for the holidays?
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suggest we can state our interests now, if we
like, and the board's first order of business in the
new year should be taking nominations and filling the
roles.

<div>For the record, I'm keen to join the board. I'm

the role this group has to play in it.</div>
