I nominate Regina Obe for the OSGeo Board of Directors. Regina is a member of the PostGIS steering Committee and has been an OSGeo Charter Member since 2009. Regina has a particular strength that is very rare in the Open Source world and that is her dedication to making open source software and programming accessible to the often non-technical savvy GIS user. Regina (along with her husband Leo) have maintained the BostonGIS blog and the Postgres Online Journal for many years providing quick and understandable tutorials, guides, and cheat sheets for various projects with a particular focus on PostgreSQL/PostGIS, much of this has culminated in the recent publication of <i>Postgis in Action.</i> While Regina has a very strong technical background, I believe that Regina could help drive a focus on the usability and accessibility of OSGeo projects.<br clear="all">
