María Arias de Reyna

Nomination by Jeff McKenna

It is my pleasure and honour to nominate María Arias de Reyna[1] forthe Board of Directors of OSGeo. You may remember that I nominated María last year for the Board, but since then she has gone on to give several great keynote talks at various events around the world, bringing much-needed discussions of diversity and sharing to the forefront of events.

María is well known in the OSGeo community for her relentless efforts as a core contributor for the GeoNetwork project, and for her longtime contributions to the SIG Libre conference (the Spanish FOSS4G). Locally she is very active through the OSGeo microchapter network Geoinquietos, and more recently also through the Spanish national geomatics association, AESIG. She works for GeoCat providing SDI solutions all over the world.

So you can see, María is a leader locally, nationally, and internationally. You can often find her live-tweeting[2] at every FOSS4G event, and sharing her passion for all things OSGeo. I see in her a very strong voice, full of youthful energy and passion, and a true leader that is absolutely ready for the global spotlight.

Please show your support for María, and help to bring her passion tothe Board of the OSGeo foundation.
