Helena Mitasova
- Nomination by
- Venkatesh Raghavan
It is a great honor for me to nominate Prof. Helena Mitasova [1] for the 2015 OSGeo Board Elections.
- Prof. Helena Mitasova - USA
Prof. Helena Mitasova hardly needs any introduction. Her activities that encompass the entire gamut of the OSGeo Foundation goals, speak for themselves. She was awarded the Sol Katz Award in 2010 for her long standing contribution to the OSGeo Foundation and FOSS4G communities. Recently, she has been one of the driving forces behind the Geo4All initiative. Her invaluable experience in area of Education and Research will be a great asset to the OSGeo Foundation Board.
I thank her for agreeing to be nominated for the 2015 OSGeo Board elections.

Anita Graser
- Nomination by
- Lene Fischer and Jeff McKenna
It is our pleasure to nominate Anita Graser, from Austria, for the OSGeo Board. Anita needs no introduction to the community, as she is very visible through her work on the QGIS Steering Committee, as a core contributor, and working very hard to promote Open Source geo through workshops, tutorials, mailing lists, FOSS4G events, and just about every possible way. She has a lot of experience managing and building communities, and she is actually quite honoured to be considered for the OSGeo Board.
Anita's presence on the Board would be a great addition to the foundation.
We excitingly nominate Anita for the OSGeo Board of Directors.
