Dear friends:
Now that I am back home, I want to thank you all for your nice words. This
has been a long journey, but I believe that we finally arrived to a safe
place. I have a lot of confidence in Christophe and Maria, and of course,
in Katherine's leadership. Let's commit to support and help them in this
new phase in the Wikimedia Foundation's history.
Un fuerte abrazo,
Patricio
