On behalf of the UK community I would like to thank the support and
patience from the board and foundation with regards to the UK community being successful
in forming a working chapter. I believe that the chapter's member base is stronger now
than it has ever been before. We all hope to learn from the mistakes and challenges from
the previous incarnation, and that we can build upon the successes they had. The UK is
one of the largest contributors to the Wikimedia projects and we hope that the chapter can
better that in its accomplishments in representing the Foundation with in the United
Kingdom. We will ensure that we work closely and communicate with the the Chapters
committee, the Foundation office and board and also our sibling chapters across the globe.
We will hopefully receive pro bono legal advice from within the UK and we will ensure
that the board is in the best position possible, but if the foundation has any advice to
offer, we would welcome it. Milestones have been set in place to ensure that the momentum
we have to kept going. It is hoped that incorporation, a bank account, and tax exemption
could be achieved within6 months if all goes well. We look forward to working with you in
the near future, and even more so to our success. Many thanks again from the UK
