I’d like to put my hand up to help out with this committee - if you’re in need of a hand, let me know what I can do to keep the OSgeo marketing ball rolling.
I’m Dr Adam Steer, I work for a Canberra (Australia) based startup building point cloud exploitation tools on an open source stack, primarily for the Australian Defence force. I’ve been working on LIDAR for a decade, PhDing on surveying Antarctic sea ice to estimate ice thickness from high resolution altimetry (or trying to). I first used OSgeo tools with QGIS way back in 2007 (I didn’t know OSgeo existed, it was just an awesomely useful, free cartography tool); and then got really interested when I started working with geospatial web data services a couple of years ago. I’m now one of the team organising FOSS4G SotM Oceania - and since I’m terrible at coding, I’m happy to help grow this ecosystem in other ways. I should also mention that back in the jurassic, when CSS had just evolved and LAMP stacks were emerging from the swamp of handcrafted HTML, I worked in web publishing. I can drive wordpress reasonably well (although don’t ask me to write PHP or MySQL queries anymore, I’ve forgotten…). I maintain a couple of websites about work (spatialised.net) and bikes (toolsfortherevolution.com) if you want to see how I write things.
Glad to have you aboard, I am not sure if there is a specific voting mechanism to on board folks. But proactive participation is always welcome in this community.
I think Astrid is the current intermediate chair.
Perhaps we should plan a meeting soon with the committee to discuss a plan for marketing goals for the 2019 year?

thanks Adam for your mail. Would be great if you join and could help in the marketing committee.
I think we can make a motion and vote via email - I will send the motion in a minute.
And yes - it would be great to have a meeting in the next weeks to talk about:
* 2018 goals - what did we manage, what is still open
* define 2019 goals
* webside osgeo.org
* find a new chair
* more marketing material for conferences/booths
* ... what else?
Maybe some more new members may join ...

would you be so kind as to setup a wiki page for this meeting. I will add a zoom account information this weekend.
I am trying to pick a video conferencing solution for OSGeo US to support the projects we get involved in and this is a great chance to push me to a decision.

I have edited the meeting page to add some more formality to it. My goal was to make it easy to use the Agenda to focus the meeting discussion and to make it easy to build meeting minutes into the page.
I have added some responsibilities to the page so that we can all share the work of preparing and running the meeting. There is now a section for describing:
who is taking the minutes (editing the page as we meet I hope)
who is leading the sections of the meeting
Please feel free to add your name as a discussion leader or as the minute taker.
I added all this context in the page to help get everyone involved and to keep the meeting from being the responsibility of one person. I would totally understand if others felt this was overkill and would be happy to remove the roles. I am trying this out and sharing it as an example, but we all are in charge of deciding what stays and what goes.
