The OSGeo Board of Directors is required to have more members added, making room for at least half of them to be replaced or at least stand for re-election along with new candidates. See Proposed Board Election Procedure for detailed steps. This page is for showing progress and status.

Turnover

5 members of the Board were randomly chosen to step down from the board following the close of the new election, but with the option of standing for re-election.

Stepping Down

  1. Gary Lang
  2. Mark Lucas

Mark and Gary do not expect to have as much time as they would like to commit to their board positions. They have declined to stand for re-election, so that their seats on the board can be made available to other, new, directors who will have more time to commit.

Running for Re-election

  1. Markus Neteler
  2. Venkatesh Raghavan
  3. Jo Walsh

Markus, Venka and Jo will all stand for re-election into their board positions.
