Hola, A todos aquellos que no seguís la versión inglesa: ya tenemos aquí las elecciones para añadir nuevos miembros a OsGeo.
Me gustaría animar especialmente a los miembros del otro lado del charco (por América) a que os postuléis como posibles candidatos. Creo que es importante mantener la variedad y esta es una forma más de variedad :) Para los que no sepáis qué es un miembro de OsGeo, y a modo resumen os comento: Un miembro de OsGeo, entre otras cosas, puede postularse para y votar a los miembros del Board. El Board es la directiva, los que toman decisiones y representan a OsGeo a nivel internacional. Que esto pilla a la mayoría como etéreo y lejano, pues sí. Pero no deja de ser importante para la organización.
