[okfn-br] [okfn-advisory] Welcome new Open Knowledge Advisory Council member

[Carolina Rossini]

Thank you Peter. :-)

It is a honor to join the advisory board and an even bigger to have been
appointed to this board by the Brazilian community that gathers around the
OKF-Brazil chapter.

I would love to hear suggestions and more details on the work of the
advisory board and if there are any upcoming meetings/meet-ups.

Unfortunately, I wont be able to go to Berlin, but I hope to meet some of
you in other
opportunities. I would be happy to tell you more about OKF-Br plans and
activities.

Best,

Carolina
