OSGeo Community,

It is time to once again nominate new OSGeo charter members. We need you 
to pick out the folks you think would bring energy and interest to the 
OSGeo mission and bring their names forward!

Only OSGeo members can vote for OSGeo directors, and only OSGeo members 
can *be* OSGeo directors, so membership is a necessary gateway to more 
official involvement in the organization.

The process for Member selection is outlined here:

  http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2011#Charter_Member_Election

This year we are adding 20 new charter members and the deadline for 
nominations is November 17, 2010.

Please confirm with the nominated person first and send your nominations 
to cro at osgeo.org, outlining the name and contact e-mail of your 
nominee(s) and and paragraph describing why you are recommending this 
person as a Charter Member.

Please also feel free to cc: the nomination to the OSGeo discussion list 
- discuss at lists.osgeo.org - so the community can be nudged along and 
have a sense of what is going on.

The new Member election will be held in the succeeding week and close on 
November 27. The results will be announced two days after that.

Thanks,

Daniel Morissette
OSGeo Chief Returning Officer, 2011
