Dear CRO
I want to nominate:
Marco Minghini
email: [email protected]
motivations:
It is my great pleasure to nominate Marco Minghini (known as "Mingo")
for OSGeo Charter membership. Mingo has been an active advocate of Open
Source GIS software and a regular presenter at FOSS4G events. Recently
he was the co-organizer of the very successful FOSS4G 2015 Europe at
Como, Italy. He has been working tirelessly to promote the development
of Open Source software and data in academia and within the COST
Networks (an EU funded inter-disciplinary network that involves almost
30 countries) where he is an active member. In July he organized in Como
an amazing Training School "FOSS4VGI - Using Free and Open Source
Software with VGI: integration, analysis and visualisation" (supported
by the "COST Action TD1202 - Mapping and the Citizen Sensor"
initiative), gathering students and young scientists from all over
Europe. I have known and worked with Mingo for many years, starting
from his bachelor thesis; he was one of my brightest students and is now
an excellent researcher and promoter of Open Source geo. Those who know
Mingo know his big bright smile and his endless enthusiasm. Please
welcome Mingo as an OSGeo Charter member.
For the sake of simplicity I put him in CC, in such a way that he can
directly confirm to be interested in such nomination.
Best regards.
Maria
