2017-05-21 Thread Kirill Lokshin 
Hi everyone!

I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has recognized
 the Wikimedia Tool Developers Group [1] as a Wikimedia User Group.  The
group is international cooperative of developers who create freely-licensed
tools for improving the Wikimedia projects.

Please join me in congratulating the members of this new user group!

For those wondering, two of the people who supported James' removal from
the Board of Trustees in December 2015 are still serving: Alice and Jimmy.

And the two people who opposed the resolution (Dariusz and James) are now
among the three people being reappointed.

Congratulations Maria, Dariusz, and James - I am sure you will do a great
job for the movement over the next few years!

I am proud and grateful to have had the support of 2,002 people,
particularly because this is a palindrome. :)

And thank you to all the other candidates, the elections committee and the
staff involved for making the election happen!

Betreff: [Wikimedia Announcements] Results of the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation 
Board of Trustees election

Greetings,

The certified results of the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees
election are now available on Meta-Wiki: 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Results

Congratulations to María Sefidari (User:Raystorm), Dariusz Jemielniak 
(User:pundit), and James Heilman (User:Doc James) for receiving the most 
community support. Subject to a standard background check, they will be 
appointed by the Board at their August meeting at Wikimania.

These results have been certified by the elections committee, the Wikimedia 
Foundation staff advisors to the committee, and the Board of Trustees.

There were 5,581 votes cast, with 5,120 of those being valid. The 461-vote 
difference comes from recast ballots, where eligible voters recast ballots to 
change their votes, and struck votes, of which there were 34. (Some of the 
recast votes were also struck.)

Additional information is available on the Wikimedia Blog: 
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/05/20/board-of-trustees-elections-2017/

More statistics on the elections and a post-mortem from the committee will be 
published in the coming days. In the meantime, we would appreciate your 
input—what went well for you in this election?  What could we do better next 
time?  These reports are crucial to helping future elections be even more 
successful, and we hope that you will offer your feedback and ideas: 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Post_mortem

The committee would like to thank everyone that participated in this year’s 
election for helping make it, again, one of the most diverse and representative 
in the movement’s history.

Sincerely,
– Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee
