[OSGeo-Discuss] Board Member Nominations starting

[Arnulf Christl]

Dear OSGeo,
the nominations for the OSGeo Board of Directors has started. Please
take a minute to understand what the board actually does:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Director_Responsibilities

A director should plan to spend several hours a week on OSGeo business
in order to do a good job. The current board members will know best.
Maybe you could please also look over this page and add things that are
on your agenda but are not well reflected on this Wiki page.


To nominate a candidate for the board please first confirm with the
person that they would like to stand for election as a Board member.
Then send an email to cro at osgeo.org by 23:59 (your time zone) on Tuesday
20 August 2013 consisting of the name, current country of residence and
a paragraph describing why you think this person would make a good Board
member.

Remember that only Charter Members are eligible for a seat on the Board
and for voting but that *anybody* can *nominate* a board member.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Your Chief Returning Officers,
Michael and Arnulf
