Abraham has joined Wikimedia Deutschland in 2012, has been the director of our Software Development department, and interim ED in the past two months. In all his roles he has shown vast experience and qualifications as well as the much needed, deep commitment for Free Knowledge. We are convinced that Abraham is the right person at the right time for Wikimedia Deutschland and have great confidence that the management of the office is in good hands with him. Abraham will continue to lead the Software Development department on an interim basis until we have been able to fill this position with a new permanent director. Together with Abraham, WMDE staff, our members and communities as well as other interested parties, the board will analyse and – where applicable – revise the composition of leadership and decision making structures at WMDE in 2017. Kurt Jansson, Sebastian Moleski and myself will be steering this process and are available for your questions and feedback via email ( praesid...@wikimedia.de). We wish Abraham the very best in this role, and the Board looks forward to continuing to work with him. Please join us in congratulating Abraham! For the Supervisory Board Tim Moritz Hector Chair _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/ wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe> _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
