		+	\| South Africa
		+	\| Tim has been involved in the QGIS project for more than 20 years, contributing to shape the software and its community, and enabling it to become what we know today. It is not uncommon that QGIS is the first OSGeo project that many users get to know, and through his company, Tim has helped lots of organizations across the world to switch to QGIS through consulting and training services. I believe that his extensive experience in the QGIS board and as director of Kartoza could provide great value in the OSGeo board.

		+	\| Ariel has been advocating for, and implementing Spatial Data Infra Structures with FOSS/OSGeo software for more than ten years. He is a key person in the OSGeo Latin America community, as demonstrated by his strong involvement with the various conferences that took place on that part of the American continent. Ariel has always been passionate about strengthening OSGeo in Latin America, and I believe he could pursuit that goal in the OSGeo board, along with making us a more diverse and multi-lingual community.

		+	\| Matthew Hanson has been an important contributor and advocator for Open Software and Open Standards within the Remote Sensing ecosystem; a regular at FOSS4G NA and FOSS4G World for more than 20 years, Matthew has always shown a firm commitment with the OSGeo community. I believe that his technical insight about software projects and his experience of engaging with different communities, in particular from the EO realm, could be valuable to the OSGeo board.
