Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Elections 2017

[Jody Garnett]

Thanks Cameron:

For more information on how elections work this year:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Membership_Process (please take a moment to
read and ask questions).

Take a moment to review who makes OSGeo better for you - and double check
if they have already been recognized as a charter member.

I am going to personally highlight two points:

>
>- A person may ask a charter member
>
>who can vouch for the Positive Attributes
> of
>the person to nominate them.
>
> Do not hesitate to ask a charter member if they can recommend you. We have
already seen nominations here on discuss of amazing contributors who people
assumed were already a charter member.

Membership nominations should strive to promote diversity:
>
>- Nominate members representing a diversity of geographic regions,
>diversity of projects, diversity of programming languages.
>
>
>- Nominate members representing and diversity of interests (e.g.,
>corporate, hobbyist, educational, scientific).
>
>
>- Nominate members representing a diversity of humanity including
>gender and race
>
> The nomination process is one of the opportunities we have to work on
diversity.

Thanks to everyone for taking part, you can watch the list of new member
nominations take shape here:

[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member nomination for Micah Wengren

[Tom Kralidis]

Hi all: I would like to nominate Micah Wengren [1] for OSGeo Charter
Membership.  Micah is with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and has been a proponent of open source at NOAA (GeoNode,
GeoServer) since 2007. He has been a core committer to the GeoNode project
since 2014.

More recently, he has been active in the open data community, deploying,
developing, and supporting open source software for data discovery within
NOAA and in supporting other US Federal agencies through implementation of
the Federal GeoCloud interagency pilot project from 2012 to 2015.  Currently
he contributes to the open source software ecosystem of the US Integrated
Ocean Observing System (IOOS) [2] to publish ocean observations and forecast
products for US coastal waters.

Micah would be an asset to OSGeo charter membership given his background and
interest in FOSS4G.

As most people should know, Guido was co-chair of the Boston LOC for 2017. And, 
as was expected, he did an amazing job. The conference was a complete success 
and Guido's touches were everywhere, with the detail and effort that he puts 
into things. He is currently working efforts to establish a US local chapter of 
OSGeo. He is a valuable member of the community and he should be recognized as 
a charter member.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member nomination for Rich Signell

[Tom Kralidis]

Hi all: I would like to nominate Dr. Rich Signell [1] for OSGeo Charter
Membership.

Rich is a research oceanographer with the US Geological Survey and a strong
longtime proponent of data sharing and standards.

Rich's pragmatic approach and strong use of FOSS4G are evident in his numerous
contributions to a variety of FOSS4G projects (pycsw, OWSLib, etc.).  Also,
his vision and focus on integration/chaining, reproducible workflows via
Python notebooks and open process have greatly helped demonstrate and showcase
capabilities of FOSS4G and standards in the ocean, atmospheric and climate
modelling communities.

In closing, Rich is a believer (echo'ing nhv from awhile back) and would be
a great asset to OSGeo as a charter member.

Thanks

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member nomination for Guido Stein

[Guido Stein]

Thank you Michael for putting my name forward. I am honored and encouraged
by the supportive feedback from the community.

I hope that my work with FOSS4G and the new local/national US chapter
(still in formation) will continue to grow and strengthen our community. It
is really exciting for me to introduce so many to our community.

Thank you all,

Guido
