[Marketing] shall we look for a new chair for the Marketing Committee?

Hello,

I was wondering whether we should look for a new chair for the Marketing Committee?

Maybe we could ask Jody to volunteer for beeing chair?

Astrid

A few months ago we decided to co-chair after our time on the board was up. I see you have been re-elected - congrats!

I am willing to chair but it will have to be at the run-the meetings level for a bit as the incubation committee needs some encouragement (many of our docs are still orphaned on the old website).

I would much prefer to do-chair if anyone else is willing (I think that is a smarter approach given volunteer availability and not wanting to leave a committee inactive for stretches of time).

I also think we could rename to “outreach” or “advocacy” committee to attract more of our members who many not necessarily feel they have a marketing background…

···


Jody Garnett

Hello Astrid,

Congrats.

I will be willing to join community. Jody I can be your Co-chair.

In relation to naming I will recommend Outreach & Advocacy OR just Outreach.

Best,

Thanks so much, what timezone are you in? Perhaps we can set up an initial “reboot” meeting :slight_smile:
I would prefer a single word, so “outreach” works for me also…

Even with a name change I would still like to balance our concerns and focus very much on what we offer to the public as a not-for-profit (the “empire open everyone with open source geospatial” vision). It is super hard for me personally not to get distracted by inviting folks to join our organization (since as a project lead that is kind of what I want).

Jody Garnett

Welcome! My timezone is UTC +0

Excellent, IK am in UTC -1.

Astrid can you start a motion nominating Enock and myself as co-chair? If we can pass it before the next board meeting we can get officially recognized.

···


Jody Garnett

Hello,

for be Marketing is still fine - maybe just add a subtile

OSGeo Marketing Committee
Respsonsible for Outreach & Advocacy

A reboot meeting would be great.
