[OSGeo-Discuss] Invitation to participate in the 2018 OSGeo Charter Member elections

[Bruce Bannerman]

I am also concerned at the lack of information and discussion that took place this year.

I do not recall seeing anything through the Discuss lists and was not aware of the Wiki page listed below. Hence my votes were limited accordingly.

At the least, it would have been useful to have the wiki page URL included in the survey. 

While I would not have nominated anyone this year, it would have been useful to have a more prominent call for nominations. Given the number of nominees on the wiki, there was obviously some process in place that I have missed.

Please take this as constructive criticism for next year.

Kind regards,

Bruce
