Dear fellow Wikimedians,
Over the weekend, Wikimedia Deutschland held its General Assembly and elections for the supervisory board as well as for the auditors.
The newly elected board consists of seven members:
* Tim Moritz Hector (Chair, re-elected) * Sebastian Moleski (Treasurer, re-elected) * Sabria David (re-elected) * Kurt Jansson (re-elected) * Lukas Mezger (re-elected) * Harald Krichel (re-elected) * Johanna Niesyto
The board has met for its first meeting on Sunday and elected Sabria David and Kurt Jansson as Deputy Chair.
Johanna is new to the board, so please join me in welcoming her to the board of WMDE. I would also like to thank our former board members Nikolas Becker, Jürgen Friedrich and Catrin Schoneville wholeheartedly for the great work and their commitment to Wikimedia Deutschland in the past years.
Lena Stammler and Daniel Baur (re-elected) are our two recently-elected auditors, and I am extending my congratulations to them.
At the GA, the board furthermore presented the final report on the WMDE-Governance-Review and how we handled the recommendations of the report. Moreover, the members approved the annual plan for 2017.
The board will meet in January to discuss the goals for our term in the next two years and I am very much looking forward to working together with this team.
Best regards, Tim Moritz Hector
