Chris (as he is usually called) is involved in the development of several OpenSource Projects. He is one of the cofounders of the GeoExt Mobile (GXM) and SHOGun projects and a committer for GeoExt and GeoExt 2. He has provided patches for several other projects (OpenLayers, MapFish) as well. Furthermore he does beta testing (e.g. for GeoTools on Windows machines), blogs about tech and is a frequent speaker at international and German conferences (where he shares his love for OpenSource). Additionally he also helps users via mailinglists etc. Lastly I'd like to stress that I personally value the opinions and thoughts of my friend Chris very much. I am sure that the OSGeo will profit from him being a future charter member. Chris confirmed that he'd be glad to be a charter member.

Even if I am not a charter member, I would like to second the nomination of Andrea. Probably the most famous project he is developing is Geopaparazzi, but I would like to remember that he also did some important development of scientific tools. Andrea is the main developer of JGrasstools ( http://moovida.github.io/jgrasstools/) a library of scientific modules for environmental analysis and NetTools ( https://bitbucket.org/moovida/nettools/wiki/Home) a set of tools for water management in urban areas.

I agree that the OSGeo community is always welcoming, and thank you for confirming that there is no issue with the election/nomination process. It is sometimes hard when I receive direct messages with concerns and thank you for helping me handle it. With my statistician hat on here, I have to point out that this is what we call a biased sample. Not that the individuals are biased themselves, but the group is necessarily going to be made up of, lets say, satisfied customers. For every Jo there may be a dozen Janes who tried to contribute to OSGeo, found it an unwelcoming place, and quietly left with no complaint or fuss. Complaining about bullying and harrassment can be very difficult, and especially in a voluntary group many will just get on with their real jobs, not seeing any great loss to themselves in not being part of it. This contrasts with harrassment/bullying at work, where there is greater necessity to speak out, and, one would hope, there are established complaints procedures and a helpful union to argue for you. Personally I think the gender imbalance in tech springs from the day baby girls are first dressed in pink and given dolls and baby boys dressed in blue and given toy guns. I'm hopeful that society is getting better - although slowly. Teach your children well as Crosby Stills and Nash did sing...

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Funded projects using FOSS4G tools with respect to water management
I will add one more, quite focused toolset: The nettools plugins for uDig. The Nettools plugins enable uDig for analyses of both water management systems and storm water networks. It has been used in Italy for professional works and also in developing countries as for example Rwanda and Ethiopia. Their home is here: https://bitbucket.org/moovida/nettools/wiki/Home It is supported by HydroloGIS and the C.U.D.A.M. of the University of Trento, Faculty of Engineering (http://web.unitn.it/en/cudam).
