Jody, board,<br>
I am personally stretched beyond the amount of amount of volunteer
time I am able to contribute, and I have not been contributing to
the marketing committee.<br>
<br>
With the marketing committee previously all but collapsed, I don't
have the time or inclination to carry the committee on my own. My
feeling is that if there isn't enough volunteer interest to step up
to the committee, then maybe it isn't important enough to the
community.<br>
<br>
This might be changing with recent interest shown by Marc and
Nicolas. I'd be interested to hear their thoughts.<br>
<br>
To make it clear, I'm hereby stepping down as OSGeo Marketing
Committee chair - although I'm willing to act as a committee member
and support someone else who steps up.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>

<div>Cameron (as marketing committee chair) has been

<div>There was some concern about the effectiveness of USB

<div>Cameron would it be possible to update the <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Committee" target="_blank">marketing
committee wiki page</a> to reflect the 2016 budget. Helena
is also reaching out to the committee with respect to a
presense at foss4gna where a booth has been secured (along
with some conference passes).</div>
