change of title from "OSGeo Ambassador" to "OSGeo Advocate", as
"Ambassador" implies that the OSGeo board has assigned the role to
someone
after a selection process (which is not the case for this volunteer
role).Voting will remain open for the next 48 hours if people who couldn't make
the meeting wish to vote.+1 Cameron Shorter to accept the "OSGeo Advocate" role.

- California) Monday, 4 June 2012 at 1:30:00 PMThe current proposal is here:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_AmbassadorThis topic has been discussed by many of you on discuss, marketing and
board email lists. Here is a summary of comments, along with my
suggestions:1. There has emerged to be two roles which people have been categorising
under the title of "OSGeo Ambassador"
a. Someone knowledgeable in OSGeo, who can speak at conferences and the
like. This is what we are focusing on for this definition of the role.
b. Someone who can negotiate MOU and similar on behalf of the OSGeo
board. This is proposed to be treated separately, with the OSGeo Board
delegated to someone they see fit to do the job, on a case-by-case basis.2. There has been concern (from FrankW?) about defining a role which is
exclusive and prevents people from just stepping up an volunteering. This
is addressed by letting anyone who believes they have OSGeo experience
and
thinks them self worthy can step forward and volunteer.3. There has been concern (from Arnulf?) that our categorisation is too
complicated. (We are proposing Board Members, Charter Members, Voted
Positions, Community Members). I believe that we do need some way to
define
OSGeo experience, because that is one of the key criteria that conference
organisors look for when selecting speakers and key notes. We can
potentially de-emphasise the categorisation by moving it into the
"Description" field rather than making a heading out of it.--
