**Candidate name:** Paolo Cavallini
**Introduction / main QGIS related activities:**
I got involved in QGIS long ago, first as an user, then more and more deeply in various activities, initiating and supporting various plugins and core functions (e.g. GDAL Tools, DB Manager), opening and managing bugs, taking care of GRASS modules, handling the trademark registration, etc . I acted as Finance and Marketing Advisor for several years. Currently I manage the plugin approval process and I Chair the board.
I got involved in QGIS long ago, first as an user, then more and more deeply in various activities, initiating and supporting various plugins and core functions (e.g. GDAL Tools, DB Manager), opening and managing bugs, taking care of GRASS modules, handling the trademark registration, etc . I acted as Finance and Marketing Advisor for several years. Currently I manage the plugin approval process. The two years as Chair has been challenging. QGIS is rapidly evolving to a more and more professional project, with lots of positive sides and some drawbacks, increased complexity and potential conflict of interests. I believe keeping a good balance between our core values (openness and cooperation) and our new challenges (professionalism and reliability) is essential for the long term success of our project. In my view, the PSC is an essential tool to balance these different perspectives and guarantee a free and pleasant emvironment for everybody.
**Motivation:**
It's such a pleasure building up, in a truly cooperative and democratic way, together with truly intelligent people, a tool that enables people to freely do their job or pursue their interests, that I cannot resist helping as much as I can.
