Hi U.S. Mappers, Since the election of the temporary OSM U.S. Chapter board we have chosen positions, which are as follows:
President: Kate Chapman Vice President: Serge Wroclawski Secretary: Rich Welty Treasurer: Thea Clay Member At Large: Steven Johnson The regularly scheduled U.S. Chapter call will take place at 8pm EST this Thursday. You will find the call in details here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Foundation/Local_Chapters/United_States Since the next couple months will be primarily spent organizing the incorporation paper work and other logistics, we feel there is no longer a need to hold weekly chapter meetings. What is your (the U.S. Community) preference on holding future US Chapter chapter calls? And are there any objections to holding the calls twice a month? The US SOTM calls will continue to occur every Thursday at 8:30 PM EST. You can find the call in information here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_States/US_SOTM There is now a page in the wiki for brainstorming ideas for the U.S. focused efforts http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_States/Ideas. The main goal of the U.S. Chapter isn't to incorporate it is to make a great map. The idea behind brainstorming is to see if there are ideas people have not related to the incorporation that they'd like to start working on (i.e. training/outreach/media). Your newly elect OSM US Temporary Board _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
