[OSGeo-Discuss] Board Nomination: Hirofumi Hayashi

["Toru Mori (森 亮)"]

I second Hayashi-san's nomination.
He has been one of the longest key contributors of community building in Japan since 2006.
His effort definitely made Japan chapter what it is today.

Toru Mori
Representative of OSGeo Japan Chapter
