Thanks Vasile for all of this work with the survey, lots of great 
information to process.  I'm very exciting to hear community members 
excited about Charter Member elections.

This is big news, that will be shared by the ICA president next week at

of the GeoForAll initiative in the agreement.  Thank you to Helena for 
making Georg and I sit down to do this together at FOSS4G-Como!
