Hello Json, welcome to OSGeo:UK!

Thanks for introducing yourself.

If you've been on here a while and like to say 'Hello' again, please 
feel free to.

I'm Nick Bearman, and while I mostly email this list with my "Chair of 
OSGeo:UK" hat on, most of my time is taken up with running Introductory 
GIS courses and consultancy <http://nickbearman.com/> for anyone who 
wants to learn GIS. I mainly focus on QGIS and R, but am open to other 
software as well. I am also Cartographic Editor for the Cartography and 
Geographic Information Science Journal 
<https://www.tandfonline.com/journals/tcag20> run for Cartography and 
Geographic Information Society (CaGIS) <https://cartogis.org/>.

Best wishes,
Nick.
