I would like to motion that we add Alan Boudreault as SAC member and 
Primary Administrator 
(http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/SAC:Primary_Administrators)

Alan manages our servers at Mapgears, including the Maptools.org server 
and services, so he is already quite familiar with Linux and the kind of 
environment/tools in which we operate. Frank offered to mentor him and 
get him up to speed with SAC's server environment. Aside from server 
admin work, he is also a MapServer committer and the current lead of the 
UbuntuGIS project.

I guess I should disclose the fact that I have opened a ticket a few 
days ago to request SVN, Trac and mailing lists for a new open source 
project that we are about to release 
(http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/490), and this ticket is blocked due 
to the lack of a volunteer to setup the services, so having Alan on 
board would obviously help move this forward, but I want to reassure 
everyone that there is a honest intention behind this motion to help 
share some of the load with the other primary admins in the long run (a 
few hours here and there and not full time of course).

Daniel
