[GRASS-PSC] GRASS PSC elections 2026 - Candidate Statement - Edouard Choinière

[Edouard Choinière]

Dear GRASS community,


Thank you for the nomination, and thanks to Helmut for putting my name forward. I'm Edouard Choinière.


Three years ago I was still a newer contributor. Since then I've become a regular maintainer: I improved the CI and code quality checks, I review PRs, I maintain GRASS on Weblate for a bit more than a year now and can be quite active on GitHub when reviewing the PR backlog. I've attended the last three community meetings and they have been so productive, and it's been great getting to know many of you there.


On the PSC, I would bring that day-to-day maintainer perspective to the project's decisions. I would push for:

  *   Development and release processes that stay efficient and sustainable with the time available to each of us.
  *   Windows (cross-platform) support as a real priority backed by CI testing and builds.
  *   Internationalization as a real part of development decisions, and more people contributing translations, since that work currently rests on very few of us. (I recently added a few screenshots for string context in Weblate, go try it!)


So again, thank you for your consideration,
Edouard
