Hi Vishnu
It is really heartbreaking to see you leave. As an EC member of WMIN, I can
say that in the recent months CIS-A2K & the chapter had an amazing
momentum growing between each other.
the best for your further endeavours.
Thanks

Dear Vishnu,
Thank you for everything you have done for free knowledge in your time
with
CIS-A2K. You have always modelled a mature and
professional approach to
the
work and to engagement with our communities,
never at the expense of
warmth,
sympathy, and genuine interest in what volunteers
care about and aspire
to.
All jobs in the Wikimedia world are complex, but
you came in to a
particularly complex ecosystem, with multiple stakeholders, many
different
communities, and not a little bit of baggage and
history, not all of it
helpful. :)
Your integrity and hard work inspired all around you, and paved the way
to
great improvements in communications, community
and inter-organizational
relations, and, of course, programmatic impact.
You will certainly be missed.
Asaf
P.S. We are yet to have our friendly hot-spicy-food competition. :) It's
a
small world.
