Forwarding Dirk Frigne nomination to the board of directors by Jeff McKenna.
Best, Vasile CRO 2015 -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Nomination for Dirk Frigne Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2015 13:13:38 -0300 From: Jeff McKenna <jmcke...@gatewaygeomatics.com> To: c...@osgeo.org <c...@osgeo.org> CC: Dirk Frigne <dirk.fri...@geosparc.com> It is my pleasure to nominate Dirk Frigne (http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/User:Dirkf), from Belgium, for the OSGeo Board. Dirk has that rare passion and vision for community, and speaks strongly about building and maintaining a healthy OSGeo 'ecosystem' made up of both the development community as well as professional service providers. A "do-er", he has built his company Geosparc (http://www.geosparc.com/) and the OSGeo project geomajas into strong and healthy entities. Dirk also feels strongly about building local OSGeo communities. He recently helped form the new Belgium local chapter (http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Belgium), and he is actively trying to formalize a European representation of OSGeo. Dirk understands the industry today, our community, the software, and is willing to help guide the growth of the foundation. I feel strongly that he would be a wonderful addition to the OSGeo Board of Directors. -jeff _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
