big +1 for Ben from me as well. I have been working now for some years with Ben on the WorldMap and Hypermap projects and I am always delighted by his extensive knowledge of the open source stack used in these projects. He was greatly involved in the GeoNode project since its origins. He is a big advocate of geospatial open source software here at the Harvard University and in the Boston area geospatial community, and he is a regular speaker at OSGeo conferences. As mentioned by Andy, he also put a lot of effort to organize the latest FOSS4G conference in Boston.
