 :*Lorenzo Becchi: ''I would like to underline her work over Public Geospatial Data, Metadata and the INSPIRE directive.  These all are complex threads but her effort to make them "human readable" is really useful to our community.''
 * '''Markus Neteler'''
-:*Lorenzo Becchi: ''Markus is a very present person over many FOSS4G communities from OSGeo to Germany passing through Italy. He's one of the faces that OSGeo can proudly show everywhere. [http://www.osgeo.org/content/news/news_archive/board_nom_20060314.html More from here:] Markus is the leader of the GRASS GIS project, and has played a pivotal role in the revitalization of the project and it's community. Markus is also a founding member of OSGeo and has been active in building the broader FOSS4G community for many years. At the FOSS4G 2006 conference, Markus Neteler was honored with the Sol Katz GFOSS Award for 2006.''

-:*Tyler Mitchell: ''Markus has a deep commitment to the FOSS model and has been a leading advocate in the international communities.  His work, education and programming contributions give him a unique perspective on how FOSS can be applied and how OSGeo can help.  I support his re-election to the board to continue contributing in these many ways.''

 * '''Robert (Bob) Bray'''
 :*Frank W: ''Bob brings a voice for two OSGeo projects, MapGuide OS and FDO, for which he leads the project steering committees.  He also represents the the support of Autodesk, our earliest and most substantial corporate sponsor. But more importantly he is a voice for the *joy* of open source, and the transformative power it can have in a corporate, and previously proprietary environment.  I would love to have his energy and intellect with us on the board.''
 * '''Michael Gerlek'''
-:*Frank W: ''Michael has shown passion for the OSGeo cause since our inception and has worked very hard in the past on VisCom activities - addressing issues from the esoteric (membership rules) to the concrete (OSGeo shirt guy).  Based on his background, I think he can help us promote and position FOSS4G software for use in the pre-packaged commercial software world.  But most importantly I think he has passion, and is prepared to commit the time to fulfill a role on the OSGeo board.''

 * '''Gary Sherman'''
 **Tyler Mitchell: ''Gary has been active in open source software projects for many years and in various positions.   As the father of Quantum GIS (QGIS) he watched a spare-time personal project move into the spotlight attracting more than a dozen committers.  It is now being used as an increasingly important part of end-user toolsets.  He has experience in many roles: programmer, web administration, project manager, community developer, financial manager, and more.  He is chair of the QGIS Project Steering Committe and active in helping the community.  I believe that his experience and his trusthworthy reputation would make him a good board member.''
