[OSGeo-Discuss] Re: OSGeo Board Election 2010 Results

[Tim Schaub]

All-

I'm excited to start serving as a new board member.  Thanks for the votes.

Current members-

Are there any details new members should know?

I've just put in a subscription request for the Board list 
(http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/board/).  Looks like that is pending 
approval.

I've also just come across the wiki page about the F2F meeting 
(http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Face_to_Face_Meeting_Barcelona_2010).  I 
regret that I didn't know about this earlier, as I would have made 
different arrangements.  As it is, I am leaving early Sunday and had 
made plans for Saturday.  I put my name down and can try to make it for 
a good part of the meeting (or all).

Let me know if there is anything else we should be aware of as new board 
members.

Thanks,
Tim
