Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Board] Congratulations and Future collaborations - Board2Board

2020-12-17 Thread Codrina Maria Ilie 

Dear Miriam,

Let me start by warmly congratulate you for your election!
You've got an impressive dedicated track record and I am happy and 
hopeful for even more seeing you in this position.


The HOT goal is as important as, I believe, challenging and I thank you 
for approaching us. The next OSGeo board meeting will be on the 28th of 
December with a focus on the on-boarding topics and we'll also discuss 
our collaboration and forward tentative dates to meet.


All the very best from Bucharest,
Codrina

Dear Miriam and OSGeo Friends,

Firstly, I want to make it very clear that I offer these thoughts on a 
personal basis and hold zero position of leadership in the OSGeo 
apparatus, bar charter membership and membership of the Conference 
Committee :-)


That being said… Congratulations on your election!! I believe that yours 
and HOT’s success in your ‘audacious’ goals will ultimately bring a new 
generation of mappers to the fore! In the coming years, I truly hope 
that we collectively can deliver on the promise that, hopefully, we 
started to collectively define at FOSS4G 2018 in Dar es Salaam.


Your proposal to convene a "Board to Board" is a very interesting one, 
especially as we have unique challenge in front us; I hope that it is an 
event that it would be possible to participate as an observer :-). 
Wishing you the very best in your new role and really hope that we can 
bring the communities closer together :-)


Best,

Mark

Dear fellow OsGeo Board Members,

First of all I hope this email finds you and your loved ones healthy.
On behalf of the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Board I would like to 
congratulate you for the recent elections and having a diverse Board 
full of talented people (that personally I admire so much!!!).


As you might know in HOT we have the goal to map during the next 5 
years 1 billion people who live in 94 countries which face different 
challenges. Some of the discussions we are having are related  to how 
we can make sure the data created is linked with tools (specially Open 
Source) that can change people's realities.


I would like to have a first approach Board to Board to introduce 
ourselves and find a way to collaborate together in the future.


If you like this idea, I would like to hear your thoughts and set up 
some tentative dates to meet.


Looking forward to start a collaboration,
