I don't understand your third point.<br>
IMHO following OSGeo projects are Java projects (if I don't miss
any):<br>
- deegree<br>
- geomajas<br>
- geoserver<br>
- geotools<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to share some comments on what I’d
like to
accomplish as an OSGeo Board Member. I have a bad habit of
over committing, so I’m
going to modestly limit my list of goals to the following:</p>
<p>1)<span style="font-size:7pt;font-family:'Times New Roman'"> </span>Work
to help private companies and businesses
that support the OSGeo software stack and other open source
geospatial software.
This includes increasing awareness about the software support
services made
available by these companies to customers and clients. It also
includes making
it easier for these private companies to support OSGeo
activities and to
receive recognition for this support.</p>
<p>2)<span style="font-size:7pt;font-family:'Times New Roman'">
</span>Work to further support OSGeo Labs. This
includes identifying current hold-ups in our incubation and
project approval
process. I want to make it as easy as practical for projects
to enter and
graduate from incubation.</p>
<p>3)<span style="font-size:7pt;font-family:'Times New Roman'">
</span>Provide better coordination and organization of
our open source Java geospatial community. Currently GeoTools
is the only Java geospatial
project in our software stack. I’d like to see greater
cooperation among the
Java advocates of OSGeo. This might include joint development
of some standard
libraries and packaging standards for the different platforms.
I also think
there is a tremendous opportunity to develop open source
geospatial
applications and libraries for Android.</p>
<p>4)<span style="font-size:7pt;font-family:'Times New Roman'">
</span>Organization house-keeping. This includes
checking in with each committee to determine if it is
functioning and if it has
the resources it needs. Defunct committees will need a reboot.
Committees that
lack sufficient volunteer support or resources should be
hibernated.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However the election turns out, I hope to
continue my work
on the Journal and with OSGeo Labs.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks.</p>
