<div dir="auto">Dear OSGeo Directors, dear OSGeo members,
<div dir="auto">I wish to congratulate you with the newly refreshed board, welcoming new Directors and thankfully recognise past Director contribution.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I just attended FOSS4G-ASIA, exactly 20 years after the FOSS4G was created. </div>
<div dir="auto">Things has changed since then... innovative (at that time) Open approach become the de-facto standard in software development and geospatial technologies became easy to use and widely adopted in all the disciplines.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">In this context, I would like to ask our Board of Directors as elected community leaders to shape their vision for OSGeo in the next 5 years.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Apart from guaranteeing the daily business to allow the foundation to operate: </div>
<div dir="auto">- What are the goals and objectives of OSGeo which make it relevant at global scale?</div>
<div dir="auto">- Which challenges are we facing or expecting as a community and what are the actions to be taken? </div>
<div dir="auto">- Which contribution can we, as a community, bring to the society to support global challenges? </div>
<div dir="auto">- What is the work plan and instruments we may adopt?</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Sorry for this long mail, but I feel that our leaders should guide us through a retrospective (what we did) and a perspective (what shall we do) to make our community flourish.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">MAY THE FOSS BE WITH YOU ! ❤️ </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
