Dear all,
The Wikimedia Foundation Board has appointed the two community-and-affiliate-selected trustees, so please join me in welcoming Mike Peel to the Board of Trustees [1]. I would also like to congratulate Shani Evenstein Sigalov on her re-appointment to the Board [2]. Their terms will run from December 7, 2022 to December 31, 2025. You can read more about them on Diff here [3].
Mike’s first committee assignments will be: member of the Community Affairs Committee (CAC), alternate to the Audit and Product & Technology Committees [4]. Shani remains Vice-Chair of the Board, Chair of the CAC, member of the Governance and Product & Technology Committees [4]. She is also a Board liaison to the Affiliations Committee and the Movement Charter Drafting Committee.
Also I would like to thank all who took part in the most recent selection process – be it as a voter or as a volunteer or staff member supporting the process. And of course a very special thank you to candidates, who put their names forward [5].
