As a reminder: we will be voting on signing the OSMF local chapter
agreement
http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters/Template_agreement at
the AGM. As mentioned before the OSMF has accepted our application and
is ready to sign the agreement once we are ready.
Given the limited amount of time we have at the meeting it would be
preferable if you could read the agreement before hand and if possible
pose any questions here in advance.
Zur Erinnerung: an der GV werden wir über die Unterzeichnung eines
Vertrages
http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters/Template_agreement
mit der OSMF über den Status eine "OSMF local chapters" abstimmen. Wie
bereits schon erwähnt hat die OSMF unseren Antrag dazu angenommen und
wäre bereit den Vertrag mit uns zu unterzeichnen.
Da wir an der GV nur begrenzt Zeit haben, wäre es von Vorteil wenn der
Text schon vor der Sitzung gelesen würde und, falls möglich, allfällige
Fragen dazu schon vorher hier gestellt würden.

Dear SOSM members
As already indicated the 2016 AGM will take place in Sankt Gallen on
April the 2nd, 11:00. The venue is the Hotel am Spisertor,
Moosbruggstrasse 1, 9000 St. Gallen. The event will follow our proven
recipe with a roughly one hour formal part starting at 11, with lunch
following and a fairly unstructured mapping party as the activity in the
afternoon. Guests are welcome to both parts, could however both members
and guests indicate to info(a)sosm.ch if they plan to intend, particularly
for lunch so that we can indicate to the restaurant how many guests they
can expect.
Please find the agenda for the AGM enclosed.
Looking forward to seeing you in Sankt Gallen.

Liebe SOSM Mitglieder
Wie bereits angekündigt findet die 2016 Generalversammlung der SOSM am
2. April, 11:00 in Sankt Gallen statt. Die Veranstaltung findet im Hotel
am Spisertor, Moosbruggstrasse 1, 9000 St. Gallen statt. Wir werden
unser bewährter Ablauf beibehalten und nach einem kurzen ca. 1 stündigen
formellen Teil, zu Mittag essen, und dann eine relativ unstrukturierte
Mapping Party veranstalten. Gäste sind bei beiden Teilen willkommen,
allerdings wäre es hilfreich wenn sowohl Mitglieder wie auch Gäste sich
bei info(a)sosm.ch anmelden würden, speziell für das MIttagessen so dass
wir dem Restaurant die erwartete Anzahl Gäste mitteilen können.
Die Agenda für die GV liegt bei.
Ich freue mich darauf euch in Sankt Gallen zu treffen.

Dear SOSM members
As every year we will have our annual general meeting in the 1st half of
the year. Our plan is to convene on Saturday, April the 2nd, most likely
in Sankt Gallen.
A formal announcement and invitation will follow in a couple of days, we
however still need to find a suitable venue, if any of you have a
suggestions could you please send it to me asap (typically we have been
around 20 attendees, if you intend to come, an informal notice to me
would be a good idea).
Other points for the meeting that we can already pre-announce:
- Pascal will be stepping down as treasurer and we will need a
replacement, stepping in Pascals footsteps will be really easy given the
good work he has done, and the quite positive state of our financials.
If you have a minimal working knowledge of accounting please consider
volunteering for the position.
- As discussed at the last AGM the SOSM board submitted an application
for OSMF local chapter status which in the mean time has been accepted
by the OSMF board. As promised we will be holding a vote at the AGM on
the matter before actually signing the agreement. I've been assured that
the agreement will simply be a completed version of
http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters/Template_agreement so
you can already refer to that for details.
Kind regards
Simon
