Wow. Luis, I've had the pleasure of meeting you a few times and you'll be sorely missed. Maggie, I've known you for quite a while and can't think of anyone better to step into this role. I've no doubt you'll do great. Steve *Steven Crossin* *cro0...@gmail.com * On 10

[Wikimedia-l] Upcoming Changes to Community Engagement

Dear all, I am sad to let you know that Luis Villa, our lead for the Community Engagement department, will be leaving the Wikimedia Foundation. A year ago, Luis took on a big challenge, transitioning from the Legal Department to lead the newly created Community Engagement organization. In that

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Upcoming Changes to Community Engagement

Losing Luis will be a substantial loss to the WMF. I sat across the wall from him for a couple of years and watched him grow and adapt to the WMF; his legal insight was welcome and targetted. When he transitioned to CE, he ably created that team and shaped it. His loss will be a real hit.
