[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member nomination - Pedro-Juan Ferrer
Hi all, I want to nominate Pedro-Juan Ferrer[1] for the Charter Member election. Pedro-Juan has been really active at OSGeo and specially OSGeo Spanish Language Local Chapter (OSGeo-es) since the beginning of its activities. He is member of the Board of Directors of OSGeo-es (recently re-elected) and the Liason Officer between the LC and the Foundation, always attentive with any task required from him. So he is an experienced OSGeo'er with a good knowledge of the foundation internals and an advanced user with experience on many FOSS4G tools as his talks about OSGeo and OSGeo Live can demonstrate. Finally he is also very active at our microchapter here at Valencia[2] with talks and workshops. The Charter Membership is needed of active profiles like him, in my humble opinion he is a truly OSGeo advocate. I hope you consider my nomination. Cheers, Jorge [1] http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Pedro-Juan_Ferrer [2] http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Geoinquietos_Valencia Last year I nominated him pointing to a funny video but as he wasn't elected I won't fall on the same stone again :-) -- Jorge Sanz http://es.osgeo.org ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member Nomination: Andrea Aime
I would like to nominate Andrea Aime for OSGeo charter membership. Andrea as a key contributor to the GeoServer[1] and GeoTools[2] projects. Actually Andrea may the key contributor - the GeoServer issue tracker lists Andrea as the project lead. While I feel I should quote some bug closing statistics here, what is more important is his commitment to the community (always ready with a code review) and supportive presence on the GeoServer and GeoTools user lists. [1] http://geoserver.org/ [2] http://geotools.org/ As a public representative Andrea is beloved for his effective stage presence. Most recognisable in the popular FOSS4G WMS Shootout series[3], or exploring topics at regional events (most recently making the trip to FOSS4G-NA [4]).

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Charter Member Nomination: Andrea Aime
I second Andrea's nomination too. Having worked closely with him on the GeoTools and GeoServer projects for the last seven years or so, and truly believe neither project would be what they are without Andrea's continued commitment.
