so...  I'm stepping down early, and ending my term a year early. There are now 4 seats available.

For a while, I've felt demotivated, and frustrated, with my role on the OSMF Board. I don't think I can do the job justice. I've also been unhappy with how much time I've had to devote to it. I have so many things I want to do at the moment. I could just do nothing on the board for a year, but I don't that's right. OSM deserves someone who can put the effort in. And that's not me right now. I want to apologize to everyone who voted for me to serve a 2 year term.

I'm still going to be around OSM, and do things to help the project, and I think, right now, I can help the OpenStreetMap project better with these things, than being on the OSMF Board.

I still think more people should consider running. I wish we had more candidates. There's still a lot of things I like about being on the OSMF Board. As always, I'm willing to answer any questions and help others.

Happy Mapping everyone!
