Thanks Suchith - I am trying to draft a blog post while travelling today so we get something more official.

Since we are a all about the doing around here do you mind sending your welcome message to discuss at osgeo.org<mailto:discuss at osgeo.org>.

There was a lot of progress made on the weekend and it will be a few days as we action all the decisions that were made.

I also am excited by having a new president and hope that having Vice Presidents on hand we can reduce the travel associates with the role. It is also good to have a Vice President familiar with operations to ensure continuity (and accommodate vacations).

Thanks Jody for sharing this updates and welcome Dirk and thank you for volunteering for this.

Also looking at  http://www.osgeo.org/content/foundation/board_and_officers.html i am pleased to see two new Vice Presidents are also included. This is really excellent idea and I think this is a really good plan for ensuring smooth continuity of OSGeo for the future.

Welcome to our new OSGeo President Venka and Vice Presidents Helena and Dirk.

Also this is great opportunity to thank each member of the OSGeo Board both past and present who all have contributed their time and efforts to help build up this amazing community.

Best wishes,

Suchith
