This being Volunteer Appreciation week in the US, I thought it was a great chance for me to post to this list and post a Wikimedia blog http://blog.wikimedia.org/2009/04/20/volunteer-appreciation/. I want to thank everyone for being so welcoming. I am very excited about this organization and this job working to support such an amazing group of volunteers!
I've been reading along on some important community issues discussed here and am learning so much. I look forward also to hearing perspectives on the list about issues around diversifying and further globalizing Wikimedia's free educational products and material. I am very volunteer-centric when it comes to my big thinking about direction, activities and products. So, I will be relying on you to help frame the Foundation's volunteer support in a way that will be most beneficial in your efforts to achieve our community's goals. I look forward to meeting you as individuals as I go.
