Dear QGIS Community,
With the addition of the Tanzania User Group in 2025, we now have 34 country-level user groups. The QGIS Charter calls for an equal number of “Community Voting Members” (we have 33), so we’re kicking off an election for one new voting member.
This year’s election will aim to follow this schedule:
14 Jan - 27 Jan: Call for Nominations
28 Jan - 10 Feb: Voting
11 -13 Feb: Tally votes & verification of results
14 Feb: Announce results
**Call for Nominations**
We invite nominations for one Community Voting Member. Any active QGIS community member is eligible to be nominated.
Only QGIS Committers (“any person who has been granted commit access in any of the official QGIS repositories”) are eligible to make nominations. This includes committers to any QGIS Git repository or Transifex project.
Before making a nomination, please confirm you’re eligible, and check with the person you’re nominating to make sure they are willing.
You can submit your nominations until **23:59 UTC on 27 January 2026** here:

If you play an organisational role (e.g. documentation lead, translation lead), kindly forward this email to your committers to ensure broad participation.
For further details, visit the QGIS community organisation page. If you have any questions about the process, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your continued engagement!
Cheers
John Bryant
