[Foundation-l] Announcement: Maggie Dennis to continue with WMF

[Oliver Keyes]

+1 to all of that. Maggie is a rock, and always keeps me pointing in the
right direction; since I started contracting for the WMF, she's probably
the person I've relied on the most for advice. She's smart, she's good with
people, and she constantly makes me feel bad about "only" working 10 hour
days. Glad to know I can keep picking her brain in the future ;)
