Dear all, The Board Governance Committee (BGC) has been working on finalizing another potential candidate [1]. The results of the process were successful and the Board has unanimously appointed the candidate the BGC has recommended. The announcement is planned for December 1, 2017, so in two days the Wikimedia Foundation Board will be finally complete (ten members).
But the Board recruitment is actually not over: we have two appointed Board members, whose terms expire next Wikimania - Kelly Battles and Alice Wiegand - so we are going to start working on filling those seats. The ideal timeline is to have potential candidates join us in time for Wikimania 2018. The Board Governance Committee and I personally are thankful to those people who were highly involved in the Board recruitment process: Anna Stillwell, Michelle Paulson and Michelle Muñoz, our Legal and Communications teams, and of course Katherine Maher. And many, many more.
