Well, I cannot run for election because I am not a paying member. I have spend a lot of time and money working on osm kosovo and I dont see why I should sink more money into this. If my contributions do not warrant a membership then I see this as not for me. We organized three conferences and charged no entry fee, <a href="http://flossk.org">flossk.org</a> charges no membership fees. I guess I see things totally different than you do. If you want to sponsor me a membership than I am willing to speak.<br>
Otherwise, what I really want Is a server account to use some CPU for my programs, I have enjoy being given some server resources on the osm servers. <br><br>mike<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Aug 15, 2011 at 8:07 PM, Henk Hoff <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:toffehoff@gmail.com">toffehoff@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
