Dimi,
Well.. it is great to hear that you have cool people to work for your/our cause! I am
really pleased to hear this! It is also interesting to see that such good people come ...
surprisingly... from Sweden :-D
All best

Předmět: [Advocacy Advisors] Welcome Karl, our new Weasel in Brussels
Hello, everybody!
I am happy to report that as of this month my loneliness in Brussels has effectively been
cured. Not only did we found Wikimedia Belgium [1][2], but we now also have a second
permanent Weasel in Brussels! Please meet Karl from Sweden (signed up to this list).
Karl [3][4] is a member of Wikimedia Sverige and has been has been sitting in the Swedish
National Assembly for 8 years representing the County of Stockholm district. After being
member of the Swedish parliament for two terms he decided he wants to deal with copyright
issues on a more international scale. He thus contacted us and moved permanently to
Brussels to help out with our EU policy efforts.
I am very glad to have him on board, not only because of expertise, political savoir-faire
and network, but also because him being here reduces the risk of me succumbing to cabin
fever :)
I hope you join me in welcoming him!
Have a wonderful week, everyone!
Dimi
