Hi,

congratulations to the new board and my special thanks to Abbas and all the others who supported and facilitated the process of establishment of Wikimedia Kenya. You achieved something and did a great job.

As soon as I am back from the Chapter Meeting I will set up a wmke-board@wikimedia.or.ke and personal e-mail adresses for all board members in the scheme firstname.lastname@wikimedia.or.ke - is this ok for you?

Best regards,

Manuel Schneider

Hi all,

It is with great pleasure for me to announce the inaugural Wikimedia Kenya board that comprises of:

Alex Wafula Ann Njeri David Mugo Oscar Limoke Stephen Wanjau

The Board's got a diverse range of experience -- with folks working in the government sector, internet industry, financial expertise and leadership skills.

I think that they're a good fit for our egalitarian, international, non-profit culture. And we've got a woman on the Board, which matters to me because we will have someone to relate to, when it comes to gender-gap issues :)

Many thanks to those who assisted in the elections process: Chris, Branton, Cliff & Oliver. And many thanks to all the nominees who took their time to submit their candidature and also answer our questions.

Let's all welcome our new Board as they orient themselves in their new roles.

Thanks, Abbas.

PS -- Note to the Board: I've forwarded your names to be added to Internal & Chapters Mailing Lists. I am also looking into creating your Board Mailing List.
