For community members, I can easily come up with several names...
basically, each of the top people in each of the chapters, for example.
 (For some of the new chapters, there are people I do not know.)

Kurt, Arne from Germany.
Ryo, Soufron from France
Alison from the UK
Frieda from Italy

There are also the newer chapters which have wonderful and talented
people.  (And I should add that it is 1:15 AM and my mention of specific
people above was not meant to leave out other people... these are a few
who I have worked with a lot, and recently, but there are many others.)

For non-community people, people with an outside perspective, I am not
sure that there are people of such global stature and fame as Lessig,
Stallman, Moglen, Kapor, etc.  I am very open to ideas to be sure (and
some ideas have been offered... good ones.)
