+1 for Astrid

In the short time that I have come to know Astrid she proved to be an asset to 
the foundation. From Foss4g 2016 in Bonn onwards she has been a driving force 
in the Marketing Committee. From continuous contributing to marketing tactics 
to hands-on dealing with collateral production ranging from Live USB to 
translation of info sheets.
All the while being critical yet compassionate.

Kind regards,
Marc Vloemans
