Dear CRO,

It is a great honor for me to nominate Prof. Helena Mitasova [1]
for the 2015 OSGeo Board Elections.

- Prof. Helena Mitasova
- USA
- Prof. Helena Mitasova [1] hardly needs any introduction. Her activities
that encompass the entire gamut of the OSGeo Foundation goals, speak for
themselves. She was awarded the Sol Katz Award in 2010 for her long
standing contribution to the OSGeo Foundation and FOSS4G communities.
Recently, she has been one of the driving forces behind the Geo4All [2]
initiative. Her invaluable experience in area of Education and Research will
be a great asset to the OSGeo Foundation Board.

I thank her for agreeing to be nominated for the 2015 OSGeo Board elections.
