That is not to say we won't continue growing membership, we are modeling after the Apache Foundation where membership nominations other individuals to become members. We are starting slow and trying to incorporate in the U.S. fairly quickly so that we have a way to accept funding and continue the work we've been doing and Haiti and potentially move into other areas. I'd like to have a board election start coming week so that we can incorporate soon. All the incorporation information is available here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team#Incorporation As well as the current membership: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/Members We need to nominate people to the board out of the membership list. Please add the names of those you'd like to nominate here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/Board_Elections There are five board positions.
