Yes thanks to Jaakkoh, Boris and Kate to have done so efficiently this process of nomination of the new members.
Decision was taken that each member could propose only one person. We then have collectively assured that those people deeply involved in HOT actions have the opportunity to play a role in the orientations as well as the many actions of the organization becoming part of the membership.
Congratulation to the 18 new members and welcome in the HOT Membership.
Pierre

Thanks jaakkoh for your leading role in this nomination as well as those who supported you in the process.
I'd like to join you in welcoming the new members from the HOT community into the organization and look forward to the amazing things that together, collectively, we will all be able to achieve in 2014
Best,
Nico

Dear all new HOT voting members, FYI all "old" voting members & the HOT community at large,

E.g. we'll be electing a Chair (person) for the organization and a new board in the coming weeks. But we'll contact you separately on all this.

In fact, thinking about it, I think it wouldn't be a bad thing is also some (other) old members also feel inclined to write their HOT story. Good to know who's who in this zoo and where are people coming from :) . Perhaps we could even post these stories someone online - under an About us section at our website? Just a thought..

>My "HOT story":
>Originally
from Finland, moved to the US (DC) over 10 years ago. I got involved
with HOT during the Haiti earth quake of 2010 and when I lived in Haiti
for 3 years. I've done most of my mapping in Haiti and Dominican
Republic and I've worked in the field with HOT (in Haiti) and pitched
into developing some new projects for HOT.
>Currently living in
Nicaragua trying to learn Spanish and getting engaged with the local
mapping community (http://mapanica.net).
>HOT is hot because I think that (it's obvious by now that) Open(Street)Mapping can have a huge positive impact in humanitarian work and making (economic) development work better.
