Thanks to everyone who contributed to last night's board meeting. This
includes community members who contributed to the 2013 programme planning,
staff who worked so hard on budgets and papers, Saad Choudri who worked to
very tight deadlines to create a Wikimedian in Residence agreement that we
can move forward with and our trustees who worked through a challenging
agenda.
The wonderful news is that we have agreed a budget and programme for next
year. It is not set in stone and we must expect it to evolve, but it means
we can now plan ahead. I am particularly encouraged at the thought of the
three new posts which I believe will make a huge difference to our capacity
engaging volunteers and the community. They will be advertised very shortly
and I encourage community members to apply.
