Hello, My warm congratulations to the people chosen to the WMF board, and to the FDC positions, and also my thankfulness to those who were candidates. Running for a public office is a lot of work and even more to invest time and energy in such a position. Without these people, things would be a lot less democratic in the world. Kind reards Ziko http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_2013/Results
Congratulations!!!

Congratulations! All the best and a smooth start in your new positions. You will guide Wikimedia through very interesting times :) Thanks also to everyone involved in the process (candidates, helpers, voters, promoters and more), your contribution is so valuable for a vivid and active movement.
Cheers, Markus

Thank you to all for the kind thoughts and wishes. It is an honor to be able to serve again on the Board. I hope that you will keep sharing advice and guidance -- from the community to those elected -- over the next two years. The WMF needs to learn from and work with every part of our communities to be effective in supporting the projects, and planning for the future is something we should all do together.
Thanks also to everyone involved in the process (candidates, helpers, voters, promoters and more)
Special thanks to the translators for their work and frequent revisions, without which we could not have a meaningful global election.
Regards, SJ

+1 -- the election committee are unsung heroes, with a tough job.
Thanks very much everyone for the well wishes -- and congratulations to all of the candidates for their time and energy and willingness to run; we had a great field for all three elections!
best, Phoebe

Dear all,
As board liaison to the Election Committee, I would like to take this opportunity to heartily congratulate the successful candidates for the Board of Trustees, the Funds Dissemination Committee, and for the FDC Ombudsperson elections. I would also like to thank all those who participated in these three elections, as well as those who voted in them.
The Election Committee made all this happen - many thanks to all committee members for working since March to manage and bring these elections to a successful conclusion (and for announcing the results well before the deadline of June 28).
And a very special thanks to Risker, for her tireless and determined work on this committee, for consistently stepping up to the plate and for ensuring that things moved forward at each and every stage.
The committee was supported in this year's election by Philippe, Sam and James from the Wikimedia Foundation - thanks for all your support.
I look forward to your thoughts on this year's elections and your suggestions for future improvements. Please leave comments, suggestions and feedback at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_2013/Post_mor...
Best Bishakha
