[OSGeo-Discuss] [Election 2016] Board Nomination for Angelos Tzotsos

[Paolo Corti]

There are many excellent nominations this year, so it will be hard to
make a choice.

But in the case of Angelos I'd like to spend some words as I have been
interacting with him directly on some projects. He is really a great
guy, always very kind with a great attitude to help others. He has an
awesome and extended knowledge of the OSGeo community and its related
projects.
I think he would be an awesome asset for the OSGeo community, so I
would like to strongly second his nomination.
