Arne Klempert is Head of Digital Communications at
IFOK, a German
consulting firm. He is one of the founders of the German chapter. He
was involved in the development of Wikimedia Deutschland first as vice-
chair and then as Executive Director, until September 2008.
Michael Snow has served on the Board of the Wikimedia Foundation since
December 2007, and was chosen in July 2008 to be its chair. Michael is
a lawyer and has been involved in Wikimedia for many years as Head of
the Wikimedia Communications Committee and creator of the Wikipedia
Signpost, amongst other roles.
Two very good people and two very well-deserved appointments.
Congratulations to the chapters for the successful completion of this
process, and congratulations to Michael and Arne. :-)
