> Astrid [1] needs no introduction for most in our community; for the few who may not yet be fully aware of Astrid’s contributions, she is an (hyper) active member of OSGeo for many years. She is a PSC member of the Mapbender [2] and OSGeo Live projects [3]. Apart from being a regular contributor at global and regional FOSS4G conferences, Astrid is the force behind the German language OSGeo Local Chapter FOSSGIS e.V. [4] ever since its inception. She is also involved in showcasing OSGeo at mega-events like INTERGEO [5] and scientific conferences like AGIT [6].
