+1 for this nomination. I have worked with him in InaSafe/OSM related activities here in Sri Lanka.
He is extremely energetic, never get tired when he is doing OSM/GeoNode work and very importantly advocates open source initiatives in difficult situations. He has excellent capacity to link different people with OS-Geo projects.
