Dear all, I strongly support the nomination of "Mingo" as a tireless person promoting and diffusing OSGeo and open source in Italy and in the world. Thanks to his participation in national and international researches and his contribution in organizing OSGeo events (I remember the FOSS4G in Nottingham and the FOSS4G-EU in Como) he took the OSGeo principles live. He's a very active member that certainly deserves the status of Charter Member.
