[OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: OSGeo Board nomination: Steven Feldman

[Cameron Shorter]

I also second this nomination for Steven Feldman. I've found Steven to 
be insightful, practical, pragmatic, kind and considerate of others, and 
an excellent community builder. You can get a feel for these qualities 
from his recent FOSS4G presentation: "Open Communities we love to hate"
