please find bellow my nomination.<br>
<br>
Hello OSGeo community,<br>
I would like to nominate Massimiliano Cannata aka "Maxi" from Switzerland as board member.<br>
<br>
Maxi is the leader of the geomatic division from the institute of Earth Sciences SUPSI. I had the pleasure of working with Maxi on the OSGeo board and greatly admire his dedication to the OSGeo community, logical approach and a keen knack of getting things done. He is deeply involved in OSGeo and FOSS4G at various level and is always willing to help and provide his relevant input on so many different topics, which sounds very important for a board member. He has proved his dedication to OSGeo during his term by being always constructive in the discussion and taking part of various committees, such as the United Nations committee for which he is now the co-chair. He is also involved in various projects at various level, the first which come to my mind is the istSOS project that he is leading with his team and his growing community, a workshop for istSOS is handled every year for at least 3 years during the FOSS4G. He is also involved in the ZOO-Project PSC since 2010 and was in the GRASS PSC from 2006 to 2016. His amazing knowledge about how things works in OSGeo or should work for the better, his dedication and his capability to work and discuss openly with different kind of people prove that he is a real asset for the OSGeo board.<br>
<br>
His personal OSGeo wiki page can be found here [1]<br>

Best regards,<br>
