Dear all,

Today the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees have posted the first of a new series of monthly blog posts to the Wikimedia blog. The first post, from Vice Chair Phoebe Ayers, is an introduction to the Board, its mandate, and its work within the community.

You can find that post at https://https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/01/13/introduction-to-the-board-of-trustees/ blog.wikimedia.orghttps://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/01/13/introduction-to-the-board-of-trustees/ /2014/01/13/introduction-to-the-board-of-trustees/https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/01/13/introduction-to-the-board-of-trustees/

Board members will take turns publishing one or two new posts every month, where they will explore ongoing initiatives of the Board and discuss topics relevant to the movement and the Wikimedia community.

We hope you'll enjoy these posts, and also that you'll take time to comment, offer suggestions, and get involved in a dialog with the Board of Trustees.

Regards,

Jay Walsh (for communications)
