[Incubator] Motion: Accept the Open Data Cube Project as an OSGeo Community Project

[Bruce Bannerman]

Thankyou for your votes Bob, Arnulf, Jo, Jody, Tom, Steve, Daniel and Frank.

I make that 9 votes in favour of the motion and 7 abstentions.

That makes a quorum.


I declare the motion passed.


@Jody,

What are the next steps? I understand that this motion now needs to go before the Board for ratification.

Kind regards,

Bruce
