I've worked closely with Astrid on the OSGeo-Live project and
believe she posses characteristics which are valuable for OSGeo:
<br>
<br>
* She leads by example, and often does the hard or boring work.
<br>
<br>
* She is encouraging and enabling of others, which helps works
well in our "do-ocracy" environment.
<br>
<br>
* She has been actively involved in the promotion of OSGeo and
OSGeo projects. OSGeo is blessed with having many awesome
technical people, but we have less people actively involved in
promotion - and we need both to be successful.
<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron

In the short time that I have come to know Astrid she proved to
be an asset to the foundation. From Foss4g 2016 in Bonn onwards
she has been a driving force in the Marketing Committee. From
continuous contributing to marketing tactics to hands-on dealing
with collateral production ranging from Live USB to translation
of info sheets.
<br>
All the while being critical yet compassionate.
<br>
<br>
Kind regards,
<br>

-------- Forwarded Message --------

<br>
It gives us great pleasure to nominate Astrid Emde as a
member of
<br>
the OSGeo Board.
<br>
<br>
Astrid [1] needs no introduction for most in our
community; for
<br>
the few who may not yet be fully aware of Astrid’s
contributions,
<br>
she is an (hyper) active member of OSGeo for many years.
She is a
<br>
PSC member of the Mapbender [2] and OSGeo Live projects
[3].
<br>
Apart from being a regular contributor at global and
regional
<br>
FOSS4G conferences, Astrid is the force behind the German
<br>
language OSGeo Local Chapter FOSSGIS e.V. [4] ever since
its
<br>
inception. She is also involved in showcasing OSGeo at
<br>
mega-events like INTERGEO [5] and scientific conferences
like
<br>
AGIT [6].
<br>
<br>
Astrid relentlessly promotes OSGeo by organizing community
<br>
events, code sprints, workshops on a variety of OSGeo
software,
<br>
and documentation/translation. More recently, her
excellent
<br>
communication skills are being put to effective use in our
<br>
Marketing Committee.
<br>
<br>
We would like to thank Astrid for kindly agreeing to spare
her
<br>
time for the added responsibility of serving the OSGeo
Foundation
<br>
as a member of the Board.
<br>
<br>
Yours,
<br>
<br>
Venka & Jeff
