[OSGeo-UK] Nominate yourself for the OSGeo:UK Committee!

[Nick Bearman]

A reminder - please do nominate yourself for the OSGeo:UK Committee!

You have until Mon 12th Oct, 3:45pm to nominate yourself.

To nominate yourself, please email osgeouk at gmail.com saying which 
position (Secretary or committee member or both) you would like to 
nominate yourself for by Monday 12th October (before the AGM at 3:45pm). 
Nominations can also be done in person at the AGM, and if necessary a 
vote will be conducted at the AGM.

Any questions, please do email osgeouk at gmail.com or myself, or any other 
committee member.

 From one of our current committee members: "Of all of the voluntary 
things I am involved in, this (OSGeo:UK) is the most fun and least hassle."

Best wishes,
Nick.
