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.
