Dear CRO and OSGeo Community,

as the nomination period for OSGeo Charter Member started right now
[1], it's a honor for me to nominate Stephan Meißl [2].

Stephan is a committer to MapServer [3] and also a member of the
MapServer PSC [4].

As well known in the OSGeo community, he has organized the wonderfull
OSGeo Code Sprint 2014 [5] [6] in Vienna which was great step forward
in community building between all the nice OSGeo projects.

So I am convinced that Stephan will be very valuable OSGeo Charter Member.

Hi Jachym, thanks for nominating Ivan for Charter Membership

As per nomination procedure[1] I always ask first off-list for
confirmation by the nominee, that's why I forward nominator mails to
discuss, only after receiving it.

Anyway, no problem, I'll wait for Ivan positive e-mail to add him to
the nominations wiki page.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Nomination for Milan Antonovic

[Massimiliano Cannata]

I would like to nominate Milan Antonovic for OSGeo charter membership.

Milan is a passionate and excellent FOSS developers, that during the last 6
years (from Cape Town FOSS4G) he's actively participating in International,
Continental and Regional Free and Open Source for Geomatics communities.

During these years he worked with a large number of OSGeo software with an
excellent spirit of innovation in application development and service
creation.
He's currently a core contributor of istSOS, he largely contributed to the
development of GeoShield (a precursor for OWS security access and privilege
management system).

Enthusiasm and competence make of him a perfect FOSS4G advocate.

Hi guys,

Again, to nominate someone you need to send an email to the CRO, then
he (me) needs to confirm with the nominee his willing and only then,
forward the message here.

http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Membership_Process#Nominations

So as for now on this thread I need Milan confirmation (on or
off-list) to add him to the nominators list.

BTW I have a nice growing pile of mails on nominations that I'll
attend this evening, I beg for your patience :-)

Have fun.

[OSGeo-Discuss] [Election 2014] Nomination for Mohammed Rashad

[Margherita Di Leo]

Dear CRO and OSGeo people,

I wish to nominate Mohammed Rashad [1,2] for OSGeo Charter membership.

Rashad is from Kerala, India. He is currently at the end of his internship
at CNES [3], Toulouse  and completing his master degree at IIIT Hyderabad
[4].

He started working on GRASS GIS for his engineering project, a web
application deployed using Cartoweb PHP framework and GRASS GIS. When he
started his master at IIIT Hyderabad, he began working on a collaborative
mapping platform called VRGeo [5] (Village Resource Geo data repository),
LSIViewer and WebGRASS. He participated in GSoC 2012 and 2013 for OSSIM
projects under OSGeo.

Currently he is working in OTB and OSSIM python bindings. Moreover, he
packages GRASS GIS and OSSIM for Ubuntu PPA [6]. He's always helpful with
users through the various ML and GIS Stack Exchange[7].

With my best regards,
Margherita Di Leo
OSGeo Charter Member [8]

 Dear CRO and OSGeo people,

I wish to nominate Mohammed Rashad [1,2] for OSGeo Charter membership.

Rashad is from Kerala, India. He is currently at the end of his internship
at CNES [3], Toulouse and completing his master degree at IIIT Hyderabad
[4].

He started working on GRASS GIS for his engineering project, a web
application deployed using Cartoweb PHP framework and GRASS GIS. When he
started his master at IIIT Hyderabad, he began working on a collaborative
mapping platform called VRGeo [5] (Village Resource Geo data repository),
LSIViewer and WebGRASS. He participated in GSoC 2012 and 2013 for OSSIM
projects under OSGeo.

Currently he is working in OTB and OSSIM python bindings. Moreover, he
packages GRASS GIS and OSSIM for Ubuntu PPA [6]. He's always helpful with
users through the various ML and GIS Stack Exchange[7].

With my best regards,
Margherita Di Leo
OSGeo Charter Member [8]

I'd like to nominate Bruce Bannerman for OSGeo Charter membership.

Bruce has been very hard working toward the OSGeo cause and often
provides valuable insights to OSGeo discussions from a government
purchasing perspective. He currently works as the key a GeoSpatial
Architect at the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, where he plays a
key role in the World Meteorological Organisation and Open Geospatial
Consortium where he is a member of several expert teams.

Bruce was incredibly hard working on the FOSS4G 2009 organising
committee, and was key in fostering OSGeo/OGC relationships by
coordination and sourcing substantial sponsorship. He has done a lot
of local OSGeo evangelism, manning OSGeo booths at conferences,
writing papers for Government committees on behalf of OSGeo and
helping found and run the Australian/New Zealand local chapter of
OSGeo. He is also the rasdaman mentor, helping guide the rasdaman
project through incubation.

It is with pleasure and honour that I second the nomination of Bruce as
a Charter Member.  Seeing him work so hard on the FOSS4G 2009 committee,
and then watching him do all the little and thankless tasks for all
these years since, including helping with the Incubation Committee,
makes me feel strongly that he should be a Charter Member of OSGeo and
recognized for his commitment.  He brings a sense of calm and
professionalism to the Foundation, and I can still remember having many
laughs with him in person.  He is a great member of our community.

Hi Margherita, thank you very much for nominating Rashad.

As I've said before, the nomination should be sent to the CRO off-list
so we can confirm that the nominee wants to join the OSGeo Charter
Membership. Then, I need Rashad confirmation here on the list or
off-list to c...@osgeo.org.

As with Milan Antonovic nomination this morning, I won't add them

It is my pleasure to nominate Sittichai Choosumrong (known as Bomp) for

worked with him in Japan while he was doing his graduate schooling under
Venka-sensei.  Bomp regularly gives workshops and talks on various OSGeo
projects, and his youthful enthusiasm rubs off on students.  He is now a
researcher at Naresuan University in his beloved home country of
Thailand, where I am sure he will continue to promote OSGeo.  He has
worked very hard to promote OSGeo and I want to thank him for this.

[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Charter Member Nomination - Jeremy Morley

[Suchith Anand]

Dear All,

It is my great pleasure to nominate Jeremy Morley for OSGeo Charter membership. 
I have known and worked with Jeremy for many years now and his help and support 
was key for expanding OSGeo in the UK. He is the cochair of OSGIS conference 
series and has been the co-chair of the very successful FOSS4G 2013 at 
Nottingham.

Jeremy is Theme Leader for Geospatial Science at the Nottingham Geospatial 
Institute.  He has worked in the academic GIS sector since the mid-90s. Jeremy 
has promoted and researched Open GIS standards (through the OGC TC since 2000), 
data (UK Location Programme User Group) and software (hosted the “EOGEO” 
workshops, predecessors to FOSS4G, in 2000 & 2004).  He has also been actively 
giving training programs (good example is the very successful GIS Open Source 
Summer School in Girona) , workshops, talks etc. He is also leading  new  
module on our MSc GIScience called  "Geospatial Information Services" at  fully 
using OSGeoLive. This is a good example for other universities to follow in the 
future for their Master, undergraduate programs etc.

I am surprised that Jeremy is not already a charter member and i am sure not 
only the UK Chapter colleagues but also our Edu community will be happy to see 
him as a charter member.

I met Johan already a couple of times on FOSS4G and other open source
conferences.
He was one of the speakers at the OSGeoGhent organized last year [1],
and helped organizing FOSSDEM in Brussels to guard a booth)

I had the intention to nominate him, but Jeff was faster with the
nomination.
Wondering where Jeff finds so much time for the organisation :-)

It is my pleasure to nominate Sittichai Choosumrong (known as Bomp) for
an OSGeo Charter Member.  I have known Bomp for many years now, and have
worked with him in Japan while he was doing his graduate schooling under
Venka-sensei.  Bomp regularly gives workshops and talks on various OSGeo
projects, and his youthful enthusiasm rubs off on students.  He is now a
researcher at Naresuan University in his beloved home country of
Thailand, where I am sure he will continue to promote OSGeo.  He has
worked very hard to promote OSGeo and I want to thank him for this.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Nomination for Sittichai Choosumrong

[nicolas bozon]

I also second Sittichai's nomination.
Dr.Bomp is using/extending FOSS4G for his academic work, and he actively
promotes OSGeo in Thailand.
He also regularly attending geospatial and open source related conferences
across Asia, and would be a valuable Charter Member.

I second and strongly support this nomination.
Thomas uses and documents a number of open source projects, and is
passionated by everything OSGeo and FOSS4G.
He would be a valuable Charter Member.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Are you excited yet? FOSS4G Program details, Birds of a Feather, Call for Maps, and more!

[Eli Adam]

July 22, 2014
Portland, Oregon, USA

Excitement builds as FOSS4G 2014 approaches! Join us in Portland,
Oregon this September 8th - 13th. Half a dozen workshops have already
filled up -- register now [1] to secure your seat in pre-conference
workshops and your place at the conference.


** Call for maps

We invite contributions to the FOSS4G Map Gallery to build an exciting
and vibrant exhibit of the very best in mapping. This map gallery will
not only demonstrate the work of delegates but also act as a reference
point for the current state of mapping. We encourage all delegates to
share one example of their work and help us create a cartographic
record of the FOSS4G 2014 conference. Read the full call for maps [2]
and enter your map [3].



** Workshops and general sessions program

This year FOSS4G features more than 40 workshops [4], providing
excellent training opportunities on relevant, leading technologies --
and that’s all before the conference even begins.  With eight tracks
[5] of sessions, plus invited talks and a great selection of Keynote
Speakers, it will be a FOSS4G packed week to remember.



** Keynote biographies

See exciting keynotes by Mike Bostock of D3.js fame and the New York
Times, Sarah Novotny of NGINX and a program chair for O'Reilly Media's
OSCON, and Al Shaw whose work at ProPublica has been honored with
several awards.



** FOSS4G turns ten!

2014 marks a decade of FOSS4G!  The tenth anniversary is a great time
to organize birds of a feather (BOFs) to reflect back and look
forward. BOFs can be organized in advance on the wiki or on the spot
during the event.  Having a bird (Her name is Helen [6]) as a logo is
a good reason to organize a BOF too!



** About FOSS4G

The annual FOSS4G conference is the largest global gathering focused
on open source geospatial software. FOSS4G brings together developers,
users, decision-makers and observers from a broad spectrum of
organizations and fields of operation. Through six days of workshops,
presentations, discussions, and cooperation, FOSS4G participants
create effective and relevant geospatial products, standards, and
protocols.

FOSS4G has been held all over the world and draws attendees from over
40 countries. Nottingham, England hosted the conference in 2013. In
2014, Portland, Oregon, USA will host FOSS4G’s tenth year.
