Hey I am also very happy to publicly welcome her to the Board, and am really happy that she was able to free up time for the commitment of our board, which demands a good deal of time.
With regards to your questions: 1) I am forwarding these messages to Ana Toni :) And gave her instructions how to subscribe 2) Her term started on the 1st of July. 3) Unfortunately she is not able to make it to Wikimania because she already had plans during that period :( She will probably be attending a part of the board meeting through Skype but she will miss the interaction with everyone, which is something she (and we all) regret but which couldn't be helped. (she did meet some of the community members in San Francisco during her stay there when we interviewed here and Phoebe organised a edit-a-thon :) Jan-Bart On Jul 9, 2013, at 12:42 PM, Lodewijk <lodew...@effeietsanders.org> wrote: > Welcome Ana! > > (while everyone is assuming Ana is already subscribed to this list, I will > do the same. i hope that when this thread lies down a bit, someone will > forward it of course :) ) > We have always heard a lot about Greenpeace, and as you probably know, it > was often used as an example in our strategic discussions how we would like > to develop as a movement (the amount of centralization).
