Well as everyone's busy nominating, I may as well say who I think too.
Of course Timo's obviously worthy of a honourary membership...
Dave, G4BUO has done a lot of work helping YCers in the UK, and his 
commitment to the EU Sprint Contest which is widely supported amongst 
WWYC, so I agree.
Paolo, I2UIY has done sterling work encouraging WWYCers to contest, and 
was very supportive at WWYC-Meeting.
Mario, S56A is also a very good patron of WWYC, and has helped many 
start contesting at a high level

So I agree with all the above, don't know any of the rest well enough to 
say :P
I agree with the automatic hall of fame for WWYCers that are now too 
old, like G0MTN (what a OF he is :) ) etc

I'll listen out for you Mikey at Christmas, if I can string some sort of 
antenna up
Royce, M0RHI
