Hi,<br><br>Grateful to be nominated but I will have to decline. I'll continue to assist with the work of the chapter where I can.<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Simon<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/04/2008, <b class="gmail_sendername">Cameron Shorter</b> <<a href="mailto:cameron.shorter@gmail.com">cameron.shorter@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
We are trying to get the Aust-NZ chapter formed before we make big decisions for FOSS4G (like selecting a Professional Conference Organisor), so please help out by fast tracking the boring procedural stuff.<br>
<br>
We need 5 directors for Aust NZ, and we want representation from both Australia and New Zealand. The role has minimal duties by itself, just the occasional vote to make list discussions official. People who are likely to be involved in OSGeo type events would be good candidates. (If you are reading this, you qualify).<br>
<br>
So in interests of speed, I nominate everyone on this list who has read this far down this email.<br>
<br>
Could we please see some acceptance emails which include a paragraph or 2 about yourself and your OSGeo interests.<br>

I'll be offline all day tomorrow.<br>
<br>
I'm concerned that we don't have acceptance of nomination from anyone<br>
but yourself and myself. <br>
Can you chase this up please? <br>
It may be worth nominating Liz Kolster and Hamish as well.<br>
