Hi all,

I would also like to note that WMF's Board of Trustees has voted to approve the nominations of Alice and Patricio to the WMF BoT (effective the Wikimania Board meeting).  The Board looks forward to welcoming Alice and Patricio and expresses deep gratitude for the diligent work of Arne and Phoebe.

Thanks, Matt

Hello!

We have a result! The polls closed a few hours ago and I've already counted the votes. The chapters have, by voting, selected the following candidates to serve on the WMF board:

• Patricio Lorente
• Alice Wiegand

Patricio Lorente (User:Patricio.lorente) is the current President of Wikimedia Argentina. He had worked as Project Manager of the Association for Social Development in Argentina. At present, he serves as General ProSecretary of the National University of La Plata.

Alice Wiegand (User:Lyzzy) is an IT specialist for system administration in the public sector. She currently run the IT department of a German municipality with 450 PC workstations. In April she will start her Master’s studies in Public Policy and Governance.

I also would like to thanks Arne and Phoebe for the job they did over the last two and half years, all the candidates for all the work they put into the elections and everyone who participated in the process by nominating a candidate, asking questions of candidates or taking part in your chapter's decision on who to vote for.

I commend this result to the board and urge them to approve it.

Regards,
