the moment, with other commitments in mind, I wouldn't be able to do it justice, so regretfully I must decline the nomination. I am sure there are others in the UK chapter who'll be able to take up the baton from Jo and carry forward the great work that she's

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm not intending to step away from all involvement in OSGeo and the Chapter, or indeed FOSS4G 2013, just my two official roles (I've resigned from the OSGeo Board as well). If the chapter needs a figurehead in order to maintain momentum
for the next year, then that figurehead needs to be someone with the enthusiasm, time and commitment to take it forward. That's not me any more- I have done the job for 6 years and it's time for someone with some new ideas to have a go- and for me to use what
energy and enthusiasm I do have towards organising and promoting FOSS4G 2013. Personally I don't think the chapter needs a figurehead for it's involvement in FOSS4G- the more collective involvement we have, the better there.</p>

<br>
I respect your decision and i am sure you must have put lot of thought to this. You have been the key driver for building up the chapter and i am keen that we dont lose the momentum that is building up. Also as now FOSS4G is happening in less than 12 months
time, could i humbly request you to reconsider your decision and to be the UK chapter representative till FOSS4G 2013, so that we do not lose focus and momentum.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear All,<br>
<br>
After 6 years as the official representative of the UK Local Chapter of OSGeo, I plan to stand down at this year's AGM. We've never really had a formal process for electing the representative, so unless anyone has a better idea. I suggest that anyone interested
in the role, or nominating someone, speak out on the list. If we get more than one nomination then we will have a vote.<br>
<br>
This is not the time for me to expand on why I am standing down- only to say that 6 years is long enough, and someone else can have a go! It has no impact, as far as I'm concerned, on my role helping to organise FOSS4G 2013, or as a roving evangelist about
open source geospatial software.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Jo<br>
