Please add questions to the elections process here and also add suggestions how we can improve the process. This page is open for anybody.

Member Registry

Does OSGeo have a register of current members

Does the Foundation know who voted and who became inactive

  • Yes. This information is maintained by the OSGeo secretary.

Bylaws

Does anybody understand our bylaws?

  • Maybe?
  • Do we need to keep them as they are?
  • Is there immediate need to change them?

Role of the CRO

  • Is the CRO allowed to nominate members? Thsi is unclear. There has been one complaint in 2012 but no further action was taken. To avoid further discussion the CRO in 2013 (Arnulf Christl) decided to refrain from nominating individuals.
  • Is the CRO allowed to take part in the elections (given she is a Charter Member at the time of the elections)?
    • Yes (otherwise it may be hard to find anybody taking on the job)

Please add your questions, ideas, answers.
