[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member Nomination: Yoicihi Kayama

["Toru Mori (森 亮)"]

Dear All,

I'm also pleased to second his nomination.
Yoichi Kayama is definitely one of the key persons in Japanese OSGeo community.
Without his long term dedication to the local community, Japan Chapter would not be active as it is today.

with regards,

Toru Mori
Representative, OSGeo Japan Chapter
