 Dear friends:

 We are pleased to inform you that the WMF Board of Trustees has come to a
 decision about which four candidates to appoint to the FDC. It wasn't easy;
 as is evident from the nominations, the caliber of the candidates was very
 high. The resolution is now published in

 https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Funds_Dissemination_Committee_Membership_2014

 We have selected four appointees as follows:

 1)Anne Clin (Risker)

 2)Matanya Moses (matanya)

 3)Dumisani Ndubane (Thuvack)

 4)Osmar Valdebenito (B1mbo)


Thanks Paticio and Bishakha for  handling  the tough job of selecting the
candidates for FDC well.

Congratulations and best wishes to all the new appointees,  I am sure that
FDC  will exceed its past performance in the years to come.

Sincerely

Arjuna

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Board decision on FDC member appointments

2014-07-14 Thread Anasuya Sengupta
Adding my voice of appreciation to the outgoing members - Anders, Arjuna,
Mike and Yuri - for the extraordinary commitment and energy it took to get
this inaugural FDC off the ground, and functioning as well as it has been.
The Advisory Group's unanimous endorsement of the FDC is no little measure
due to the work all of you contributed. Thank you so much for everything
you put into it; I hope you gained immeasurably from the experience too
(beyond the jet lag and the complaints!). :-)

Thank you too, to Bishakha and Patricio and the rest of the Board for the
selection of the new appointees (and welcome, Anne, Dumisane, Matanya and
Osmar!). The movement was lucky to have such a strong pool of candidates
interested in the positions (and I hope this will continue to be true), but
it must have made the decision difficult indeed.

Looking forward to working with all the new appointees, and continuing to
work with Anders, Arjuna, Mike and Yuri in other ways.

Warmly,
Anasuya

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Board decision on FDC member appointments

welcome on board :) I'm glad to see that all nominated members are heavily
engaged and experienced. I would like to second Patricio's appreciation of
stepping down members, who helped shape the FDC as it is now, dedicated
hundreds of hours of time to the process, and made it possible.

best,

dariusz pundit

 On behalf of the Board, we want to thank Anders, Arjuna, Mike and Yuri for
 their service to the inaugural FDC. We deeply appreciate the two years they
 have served the committee and all the work they have done during four
 rounds of FDC recommendations. They have helped to shape the FDC itself,
 made critical decisions about how to strategically direct movement funds,
 and helped to shape the future of the movement. We hope they will continue
 to remain engaged in the FDC process and the movement in different ways in
 the years ahead.

 We also want to thank all the candidates, and encourage them to consider
 re-applying for the committee next year, when five new members will be
 elected to serve on the committee.

 Best,

 Bishakha and Patricio
