hi Karen; I'd like to thank you for your great, indispensable work over the past few years. your enthusiasm and involvement in GNOME have been incredible and inspiring.
I wish you all the luck in the world as the Conservancy ED: they are incredibly lucky to have you. having you on the board and on the engagement team would be great for GNOME. ciao, Emmanuele / with only his hat of Foundation member on.
