[OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Board nomination: Helena Mitasova

[Jody Garnett]

It is wonderful to see Helena nominated for reelection. If I can lend my
voice of support and mention several more of her contributions.

Helena has been serving as vice-president, covering the North American
region, and gathering everyone together for the 2017 AGM.

She has also stepped up during the website/rebranding activity this year
helping untangle GeoForAll’s requirements,
attending weekly meetings with encouragement and wisdom when we were stuck,
and visiting Get Interactive offices person.

Helena is a wonderful advocate for our community, it would be great to see
her re-elected for another term.
