(note that this was originally submitted 2017-09-27 but I waited, to try to
avoid being both the CRO sending to Discuss list, and the one who submitted
the nomination. So I'm happy to finally share my nomination ha!)

Name: María Arias de Reyna
Country of Residence: Spain
It is my pleasure and honour to nominate María Arias de Reyna[1] for the
Board of Directors of OSGeo. You may remember that I nominated María last
year for the Board, but since then she has gone on to give several great
keynote talks at various events around the world, bringing much-needed
discussions of diversity and sharing to the forefront of events.
María is well known in the OSGeo community for her relentless efforts as a
core contributor for the GeoNetwork project, and for her longtime
contributions to the SIG Libre conference (the Spanish FOSS4G). Locally she
is very active through the OSGeo microchapter network Geoinquietos, and more
recently also through the Spanish national geomatics association, AESIG. She
works for GeoCat providing SDI solutions all over the world.
So you can see, María is a leader locally, nationally, and internationally.
You can often find her live-tweeting[2] at every FOSS4G event, and sharing
her passion for all things OSGeo. I see in her a very strong voice, full of
youthful energy and passion, and a true leader that is absolutely ready for
the global spotlight.
Please show your support for María, and help to bring her passion to the
Board of the OSGeo foundation.
