I also second this nomination for Steven Feldman. I've found Steven to
be insightful, practical, pragmatic, kind and considerate of others, and
an excellent community builder. You can get a feel for these qualities
from his recent FOSS4G presentation: "Open Communities we love to hate"

Hi Vasile/CRO,
I'm nominating Steve Feldman of the UK. He has already confirmed to me
that he will accept the nomination but you can double check with him
if you
want (he's in cc).
Steven first became involved in OSGeo in 2012 when he was invited to
chair
FOSS4G in Nottingham by the UK chapter. Since then he has been a Charter
Member, a former chair and now active member of the Conference Committee,
vice chair of FOSS4G UK, Treasurer of the UK chapter, has lead 2 Travel
Grant Programmes and has been an (at times noisy) advocate for OSGeo. He
brings an analytic and commercial focus and passion for the community to
all of his efforts on behalf of OSGeo.
I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Steven on various projects
through the years and can't recommend him enough. He's logical, smart,
funny, enjoyable, hard working, effective, aware of the bigger
picture, and
capable of completing the details. He posses a depth of knowledge and
life
experience of great value to OSGeo. While possessing such background,
he's
also relatable, cutting edge, and connected. Steven also connects with
newer community members to include and mentor newer community
members. It
is with great enthusiasm that I nominate Steven Feldman for the OSGeo
Board
of Directors!
Sincerely, Eli Adam
