[OSGeo-Discuss] Letter from the new OSGeo President

[María Arias de Reyna]

Dear fellow OSGeo members,

I am proud and happy to have been appointed President of OSGeo. I hope to
fulfill your expectations and continue to improve OSGeo. We are living
beautiful times for free and open source software in geo and all of us
should enjoy and participate in this party.

One of the things this board has been discussing lately is that we should
get more people involved in the organization. I would like to take the
opportunity
so that those who want to get more involved can step forward and begin to
perform tasks that will make our community better. There is always room for
more volunteers and any help, as small as it may seem, will help us grow
more.

As you may know, I want to promote more diversity and inclusiveness in the
organization. So if you feel a bit isolated and want to be more involved,
it would be a good time to send an email to the OSGeo discuss mailing list
(or any of the other mailing lists you may be part of) so we know you are
there and want to get involved more. Making us aware you are there will
help us identify communities or individuals that are more isolated so we
can extend our network to reach you.

Thanks for all the good work and thanks to everyone participating in OSGeo.
It is you who make this organization what it is.

Cheers,
María Arias de Reyna
President, OSGeo Foundation
