**Introduction / main QGIS related activities**: I am an open source software developer and I live in Italy. By education I'm an agronomist with some topography and pedology background, but I turned to the dark side early in my career and I started programming any kind of device that has a chip inside as soon as their price dropped low enough. I started using Linux in 1994 and after some real work as an R&D data analyst for a big pharmaceutical company I started my own small business that was making map-based web applications for the touristic market (there was no Google Map and such at that time) and it is for this reason that I discovered GRASS, Mapserver, PostGIS and finally QGIS when I needed a GIS viewer.

**Introduction / main QGIS related activities:** I'm a geographer (specialized in cartography and GIS) and long time QGIS user (since about 2005). In my main job I am a GIS project manager at the Canton of Solothurn in Switzerland and partially a developer of smaller Python plugins or Python code useful for our inhouse projects. Prior positions include: project manager in the Canton of Zug, responsible GIS manager at the City of Uster in Switzerland, research assistant and PhD student at the Institute of Cartography at ETH in Zurich.

**Introduction / main QGIS related activities:**
I got involved in QGIS very 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 past 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.

**Introduction / main QGIS related activities:** I'm the current release manager of QGIS and have been since I took over from Tim in Sep 2013 as I was already handling the packaging for Debian/Ubuntu and Windows as core committer (which I became in Nov 2007). The windows packaging relies on OSGeo4W, which I'm also the main maintainer of. I'm also doing the translation of the QGIS UI to German. I'm also GDAL/OGR committer and am maintaining the NAS driver (German cadaster format) there. Last but not least I'm also doing various occasional administrative tasks on the OSGeo infrastructure as member of the OSGeo system administration committee.
