Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member Nomination: Maning Sambale
Dear Arnulf, one more time I would like to thank you for this really good choice. I get the honor to met Maning and listen his presentation in Tokyo this year, during the talk I was impressed by his huge knowledge in many OSGeo technologies and the way he used it. I also think that he is really representative of OSGeo, indeed it is really a nice guy to speak with which is open to new ideas and get many interesting ideas he is open to share with other. I would like to say Open Mind :) It is also really nice to see how he use OSGeo technologies in different way that lot of us are using it as he work in Philippines where network is not always available. So I strongly recommend Maning Sambale to be elected as an OSGeo Charter Member as he deserves to be not only for promoting but also using massively OSGeo software to provide solutions for his country.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member Candidature: Margherita Di Leo
Dear all, I'd like to nominate Margherita Di Leo, aka madi [0], as Charter Member. Margherita is about to complete her PhD program in hydrology and for her daily work uses and teaches geospatial open source software and develops GRASS GIS in particular. She is an active and enthusiast promoter of the benefits of open source over proprietary software in research. She constantly helps university students in the installation of OSGeo software on various platforms, and promotes OSGeo Live, even overseas! [1]. She participated as student at the GSoC program 2011 with OSGeo/GRASS GIS. She is involved in several activities to promote open source, organizing conferences such as Linux Day within the Linux User Group, giving talks on the topic of geospatial open source software. Since 2009 she is active member of GFOSS.it, the Italian OSGeo local chapter, and is currently involved in the organising committee of GFOSSDAY 2011 [2, in Italian]. I believe she would be a great asset for OSGeo, as a contributor, enthusiastic promoter as well as a further step towards fair gender representation within OSGeo! best regards, Anne [0] http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/User:Madi [1] http://www.slideshare.net/madi468/lecture-ossim-licensed [2] http://www.gfoss.it/drupal/gfossday2011/comitato_tecnico -- http://gis.cri.fmach.it/ghisla/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
