I am pleased to nominate Gérald Fenoy for the OSGeo Board of Directors. Many of you will recognize Gérald in his ZOO-Project t-shirts at past FOSS4G events. He is a passionate person, and he gives his heart and soul to every project that he works on.

Gérald was the initial contributor to the ZOO-Project (http://www.zoo-project.org) Open Source project, a popular WPS platform. Living in southern France, he is also active in several other local Open Source projects including PostGIS (he is the maintainer of the PostGIS.fr website http://www.postgis.fr/).

Gérald is also a long-time MapServer user, and leverages MapServer (http://www.mapserver.org) in each and every project that he delivers. Throughout the years he has submitted several patches directly to the MapServer source code.

A frequent traveler, Gérald is also very active in OSGeo communities all around the world, including OSGeo-Senegal (Africa), OSGeo-Japan, OSGeo-Vietnam, and OSGeo-China.
