<div dir="ltr"><div><div>I would also like to thank these three. <br><br>I always appreciate Cameron for his focus and adherence to process and referencing the previously established guidelines (like for code sprints and Board priorities). I also like that Cameron is willing to take on projects working to form some sort of community consensus. <br>
<br></div>A huge thanks to Daniel and Frank for their long-time commitment and providing historical perspective and continuity. <br><br>More specifically thanks to Daniel for his tireless paperwork, legal work, and finance work. <br>
<br></div>Frank is much admired by many for his dedication to transparency (I think that he has taken more board-private threads public than anyone else). This is really important and I always feel that OSGeo is "safe" with Frank there as an eternal advocate to transparency. I hope some other future Directors will dedicate themselves to this level of transparency. There are so many other things for which Frank deserves thanks. Thanks for an incredible run Frank. <br>
