Glad to hear a vacancy has been filled -- Kristin, thank you for stepping up! Also, many thanks to Bob for all he has done to develop Wikimedia DC and the Wikimania bid. -Pete On Nov 13, 2011, at 4:32 PM, Sarah Stierch wrote: From: Kirill Lokshin <kirill.lokshin(a)wikidc.org> Date: Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 6:27 PM Subject: [WikiDC] Board of Directors appointments and departures To: WikiDC Internal Mailing List <wikidc-internal(a)googlegroups.com>om>, Wikimedia DC Mailing List <wikimedia-dc(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Everyone, Today, the Board of Directors appointed Kristin Anderson to fill the seat previously held by Dan Rosenthal. Many of you will no doubt know Kristin from her work with the Wikimania planning process, where she has held an active role since the time of our initial bid. Kristin will serve on the Board until the next scheduled election, which will take place in September. Separately, the Board has, with great regret, accepted the resignation of Robert Platt. We are grateful to Bob for all the assistance he has provided to our chapter, and wish him all the best in his future endeavors. Because of Bob's departure, there is again a vacancy on the Board, and we would like to appoint someone to fill it in the near future. Anyone interested in serving is invited to submit their name for consideration. Kirill -- Kirill Lokshin Secretary | Wikimedia District of Columbia http://wikimediadc.org | @wikimediadc
