Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] My name is now Andrea

[Andrea Ross]

Thank you very much Maria. 

I'm sorry we haven't gotten a chance to know each other in real life yet. I 
look forward to that very much.

I like to believe that even though we all have different stories, and come from 
different places, we're all just people, and have more in common that 
different. :-)

Hope to see you soon,

Andrea

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] My name is now Andrea

[Maria Antonia Brovelli]

Andrea, congrats for this important step.


Unfortunately we have never spoken together at conferences and I'm realizing 
right now how many pieces of life of our FOSS4G companions we are missing.


You put things in the right perspective: we are not only developers, students, 
professors, charter members but first of all human beings with a richer and 
interesting life. Thanks, Andrea!!!


I'm proud to be friend of you in the internet and I hope to have the same 
possibility also in our real life.


Kisses from Italy!

Please pardon me for those who already know this news.

Hey Andrea, that was a great read, thanks for being
yourself !

A fun thing is that "Andrea" in Italy is a male name
(translation of
Andrew) so it wasn't very clear from the subject what
you were after).

It's good to see female population growing in this
community, btw :)

Thanks for your email Sandro. Yeah, I recognize that for a
few parts of the world, Andrea is more typically a male
name. Of course for quite a few it's typically a female
name. I guess that's kind of a fitting name for me then. :-)

Kind regards,

Andrea

Well done Andrea taking this important step, I'm really pleased you're now
living as you're supposed to be, it must be a huge relief.  You're an
inspiration to others in a similar situation - and the main thing: keep up
all the good work in Geo!
