Hi
No, they are observers on the first day and will be present. Just like Kat will be an observer on the first day. We have always done this, but the Wikimania meeting was always one day, so the transition took place somewhere in the middle of the day. This time the break is more obvious, thats all.

- Welcoming the newly elected trustees [...]
So the new trustees enter in office only on the second day?
