| 1 | Arne Schubert | Germany | From: Astrid Emde
I would like to nominate Arne Schubert for OSGeo charter membership. Arne is active in the Mapbender Project & in the YAGA Development Team. He was involved in FOSSGIS events and organized the OSGeo & OSM Subconference at FrOSCon last week. He is a great value for OSGeo, FOSSGIS and FOSS4G. He may get involved in GSoC next year and get involved in OGC Specs. And one thing I do not want to keep secret is that he talks about Docker every day :). |

| 1 | Tom Chadwin | UK | From: Jo Cook
I would like to nominate Tom Chadwin as a charter member of OSGeo. Tom is the author of QGIS2Web (https://github.com/tomchadwin/qgis2web), which is any incredibly valuable tool, key in enabling a lot of new people to get involved with open source web mapping. Tom is also an extremely valuable member of the OSGeo community in the UK, successfully promoting open source geospatial use in his National Park Authority and beyond. |
