However I also confess that it was not so pleasant experience as I expected. And it required much time than I initially thought. There were many endless debates and discussions all over the lists and I sometimes felt helpless being stuck in the endless maze having realized that Director</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s role is setting Directions and sometimes time can fix the things. </span></p><p class=MsoNormal align=left style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:left;text-autospace:ideograph-other;word-break:keep-all'><span lang=EN-US>At first please take a look at my manifestos from 2015 election <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2015_Candidate_Manifestos#Sanghee_Shin"><span style='color:#0563C1'>https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2015_Candidate_Manifestos#Sanghee_Shin</span></a> and my recent updates on my roles <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Face_to_Face_Meeting_Paris_2017#2._Director_Update"><span style='color:#0563C1'>https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Face_to_Face_Meeting_Paris_2017#2._Director_Update</span></a> here for my roles for the last 2 years. </span></p><p class=MsoNormal align=left style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:left;text-autospace:ideograph-other;word-break:keep-all'><span lang=EN-US>Over the last 2 years I tried to bring in different views to OSGeo horizontally from Asia, vertically from business domains. Also I tried to put some efforts to increase the relationship with UN. I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>m not sure whether the results out of my activities are satisfactory or not. I should admit that there were not so many chances to represent Asia</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s view at the board level. It</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s unclear if it is caused by Asia</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s low activities or cultural/language barriers. However I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>m very happy to see many vibrant local activities in Asia region over the last couple of years. As a businessman I tried to be more tolerant and permissive toward issues around OSGeo. Sometimes I saw the </span>‘<span lang=EN-US>Desire to the Innocence</span>’<span lang=EN-US> from the community. I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>m confident we can grow more with more diverse views and impurities. This is far from the hostile takeover. Regarding the UN activities, I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>m pleased to have played small set of role in developing a relationship with UN. As a result of FOSS4G 2015 Seoul</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s UN special session, UN Open GIS Initiative officially started at the March of last year and I was designated as Chair of TAG(Technical Advisory Group of UN Open GIS Initiative) at the November of 2016. UN Open GIS Initiative is going well and hope UN could complete their plan soon with full operation of their system based on open source. </span></p><ul type=disc><li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:left;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;text-autospace:ideograph-other;word-break:keep-all'><span lang=EN-US>All candidates - what role, specific topics would you like to work on within the board and why? what do you hope to contribute and achieve in the next 2 years?</span></li></ul><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I believe too much devotions and affections to OSGeo will harm both me and OSGeo. I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>ll limit my contribution time to OSGeo and keep distances from the Foundation as much as I love OSGeo. By doing this I think I can have the 3<sup>rd</sup> person</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s view toward the OSGeo. Anyway my first priority will be representing Asia</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s voice, that</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s the reason why many of my Asian friends asked me to run for the re-election. And as a non-developers and a businessman, I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>d also like to bring in users/practitioners/business mind to the board level. As our foundation grow, we need to hear and reflect voices from members other than developers. Tangibly to say </span><span lang=EN-US>I would like to see 2 things in the next 2 years. First I</span>’<span lang=EN-US>d like to see the successful completion of UN Open GIS Initiative, which is at Spiral 1 and 2 stage now.

This could harm the sustainability of open source ecosystem and our foundation. One of my interest is how to make virtuous cycle within our ecosystem at least in our foundation, from developers to users/practitioners/businessman. Now we see that many companies and institutions get the profits/benefits using OSGeo projects. I believe some parts of those profits/benefits should be returned to real developers in some way. I have no concrete idea how to make this virtuous cycle work. But, I can share my experience here in Korea. Recently my company and other 11 Korean open source companies formed KAOS-G(Korea Alliance of Open Source Geospatial) as a legal entity. Unlike OSGeo, KAOS-G is a company alliance to capture the value by offering professional open source GIS to customers and return the profits, contribute back to the communities. It</span>’<span lang=EN-US>s just start and experience however I expect some of good idea I can get from this KAOS-G activities. </span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I’ll update my manifestos to the wiki page soon. </span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>May the FOSS & PEACE be with you & us all. </span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Kind regards, </span></p><p class=MsoNormal>신상희<span lang=EN-US><br>---<br>Shin, Sanghee<br>Gaia3D, Inc. - The GeoSpatial Company<br>www.gaia3d.com </span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"굴림",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0cm'><b>보낸 사람<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:gert-jan@osgeo.nl">Gert-Jan van der Weijden - Stichting OSGeo.nl</a><br></span><b>보낸 날짜<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US>2017</span>년<span lang=EN-US> 10</span>월<span lang=EN-US> 12</span>일 목요일 오전<span lang=EN-US> 1:59<br></span><b>받는 사람<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:discuss@lists.osgeo.org">'OSGeo Discussions'</a><br></span><b>참조<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US><a href="mailto:cro@osgeo.org">'OSGeo CRO'</a><br></span><b>제목<span lang=EN-US>: </span></b><span lang=EN-US>[OSGeo-Discuss] board members candidates manifestos please</span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"굴림",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi all,</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>As a charter member, one of my main duties is to vote for the new Board.</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>In order to achieve this responsible task in a proper way, I do need to know the candidates personally</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>But I DO need to know what they stand for, what their ideas are towards OSGeo in general, and their ideas about a role in the Board.</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We're almost halfway the campaign week, and until now only 2 (Vicky and Maria) out of 9 candidates supplied me on [1] with some information.</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>That's far from enough to have a campaign, let alone to cast my vote.</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>So, I'd like to invite Astrid, Venka, Jody, Sanghee, Helena, Dirk and Jeff to write down their manifestos on [1].</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Even if it's just copying and pasting from previous years, although I hardly can imagine that the development in the past 12 months (especially on the marketing aspect) isn't influencing your actual point of view on our organization.</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Kind regards from a "willing-to-vote-member" in the Lowlands,</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Gert-Jan</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[1] https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2017_Candidate_Manifestos</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>_______________________________________________</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Discuss mailing list</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss</span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
