I also second this nomination. I'm working with Silvia every day and know she is keen to open source software, particularly when it comes to developing countries.
She has contributed a lot to the uDig, JGrasstools and Geopaparazzi project. Even if she sometimes wears the developer clothes to do environmental modelling, I think her greatest skills are in project planning and coordination (apart of being a GIS super power user), which makes her in my opinion a good asset for the Osgeo community.
