[OSGeo-Discuss] Board election: no re-elections this year?

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Gert-Jan,

just my personal opinion here. I think there are a lot of growing pains, making the issues to deal with larger and more complex, with no obvious easy solutions.

The time aspect was not the problem for me, the energy / friction aspect was.

Btw, Jachym has been around for more than 2 years, and so has been Anne. They had a (half-)term before this term.

Best regards,
Bart
