<p>Dear OSGeo-Board,</p>
<p>as both teams agreed, the conference committee
extended the period for preparation of the
proposals for FOSS4G2019. The new deadline for
proposals now is the 4th of December, the q&a
period lasts until 15th of December. After this
the conference committee will vote on the
proposals. See the corresponding emails below.</p>
<p>We will send the official result to the Board on
December 18. The procedure foresees that the Board
will then vote on the Conference Committee's
proposal. I would please you to consider to vote
promptly after our vote, so that we are able to
inform the teams before Christmas.</p>
<p>Since Vasile and Maria represent both chairs of
the respective LOCs on the board, I would suggest
that both abstain from this vote, but of course
this is matter of the Board, not mine.</p>

<p>Dear Conference Comittee, SLOC and BLOC!</p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
As the Spanish team and some of our committee
members have agreed (and there have been no
dissenting votes) I would like to announce that
the time period for submitting the proposals for
RfP2019 has been extended by one week. The new
deadline for the proposals is now <b>4th of
December</b>.<br>
<br>
I have changed the corresponding pages in the
WIKI [1] and shortened the question phase by
three days (until 15th of December). This allows
the Board to approve the election of the
Conference Committee before Christmas.<br>
<br>
***Note for the voting members***<br>
!! Please note, that the final vote on the
proposals takes place between 15th and 17th of
December !!
<br>
Be preapred and please vote, no matter where you
are !!!</p>

<p>I am happy, that you agree (and to be honest,

<p>I do not want to support any kinds of

have to clarify up some things about your
notice in the 2nd part of your email:</p>
<p>The idea and the initiative for this
extension are 100% based on my personal
thoughts, nothing else. No one of BLOC asked
me to do that, so there is no need to be
surprised ;-).
<br>
I just remembered the time when we @Bonn
prepared our proposal. Although such a
proposal is the sum of work of many people, in
the end it was me to write major parts and
that *might* be the same for SLOC and BLOC. I
say *might* because I do not want to start any
discussion on this here & now. I also
think, that the internal organisation is a
matter of the [_]LOCs.
</p>
<p>!! If this extension of the proposal period
leaves any bland flavour, we shouldn't do it
!!</p>
<p>In general I am quite sure, that the Romanian
and also the Spanish communties are big and

to guarantee a fair competition among the

Dear Conference Committee, dear
Maria as representant of the Sevilla<br>
team (SLOC)!<br>
<br>
I think you all have seen, that
Vasile, the CRO of the recently
finished<br>
board votings had a lot TODO's
around the voting procedure. Many of<br>
these time consuming issues couldn't
be foreseen due to all the<br>
happenings around the voting period.<br>
<br>
The point is, that Vasile is also
foreseen as chair of the Bucharest<br>
team for Rfp 2019 (BLOC). Having
noticed all this, I asked Vasile, if
he<br>
would agree me proposing to extent
the proposal period for Rfp 2019 by<br>
one week. This to give especially
him some more time to prepare the<br>
proposal without running into a
hastle. Of course provided that SLOC
agrees!<br>
<br>
I think it's only fair and we should
give BLOC the chance to make a good<br>
proposal for a fair competition
between SLOC and BLOC. In general
that<br>
would mean, that all the dates
mentioned on [1] would slip back a
week,<br>
but we still would be able to
present the location for 2019 by
Christmas<br>
(if the board would find a date for
their final decision). We also could<br>
shorten the question period by a few
days, so the board has more options.<br>
<br>
So first I'd like to ask you Maria,
as representant of SLOC, what your<br>
thoughts on this are? Can we agree
on this proposal?</p>
