Please join me in welcoming Arne to the board and
congratulating
Michael on his re-appointment. On behalf of the board I would like to
thank all those involved in facilitating the process and making these
appointments possible.
Thanks to everybody for the welcome - and especially to the chapters
for nominating me in the first place. I'm very happy that I can
further my involvement in Wikimedia in this important position. After
many years with a chapter's hat on - I'm excited about working for
Wikimedia's mission from a different perspective.
Best,
Arne
