Dear Vasile


I strongly support the nomination of Daniele Oxoli as a young enthusiast 
advocate of open source GIS software, promoting OSGeo and open source 
through his active participation as presenter (FOSS4G Como 2015, Paris 
2017) as well as assistant of the local organizing committee during 
OSGeo events (FOSS4G Eu in Como 2015 and also Bonn 2016).
I have known Daniele since years, starting from his master thesis, and 
he has always demonstrated tireless dedication to research and promotion 
of open source principles.
He is currently employed as researcher and PhD student at Politecnico di 
Milano where he is continuing providing excellent solutions with FOSS4G 
as well as introducing undergraduate students to the use and philosophy 
of open source and open data (he is the Vice President of the 
PoliMappers Association). Moreover, he is also contributing in software 
development through the implementation of a QGIS plugin dedicated to 
spatial statistics (Hotspot Analysis).
Please, welcome Daniele as an OSGeo Charter member.

Cheers
Maria

P.S. I already spoke with Daniele (in CC) and he is happy with the 
nomination.
