Hello, The members of the board of trustees of Wikimedia Foundation have recently agreed to add two new board members, both being members of our community, for a term which will expire at next board elections (june-july 2008). The first is Michael Snow, long time editor of Wikipedia, and twice candidate to the board. Rather than presenting him, I recommand that you go read into detail his candidate statements, back in 2004 (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Board_elections/2004/Candidates#Michael_Snow_.28Confirmed.29), or in 2007 (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Board_elections/2007/Candidates/en#User:Michael_Snow). Michael is a american lawyer, has been the founder of the SignPost and is currently the Chair of the Commmunication Committee. He is noticeable (somehow) for being very calm and wise. The second is Domas Mituzas, long time developer in our tech team. He is from Lithuania and works for MySQl. He has been a member of the core tech team for... ever, and is the Foundation hardware volunteer officer. User page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Midom Recent email on foundation list: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2008-January/035729.html He is noticeable for being a very friendly, cheerful, and tall individual. I am delighted to welcome them both on board, and I hope the community will generally agree it is a good choice. Their terms will unfortunately be rather short, but I have no doubt they will bring good insight nevertheless. Thanks Florence Devouard Chair Wikimedia Foundation
