>Dear all,

>In the Frankfurt retreat of October 2007 (see

>) it was envisioned that someone should be charged with the fostering of
>relationships between Chapters and Foundation as well as with the developing
>of Chapters and related activities. This is actually a job which has been
>developed, and officially been done for quite a while already, by Delphine
>Ménard, as you all may know.

>On the current path of stabilizing and professionalizing the organization,
>the Wikimedia Foundation has decided to now hire Delphine Ménard as Chapters
>Coordinator (part-time), starting as of today, February 1st, 2007. It is my
>honor, as board member especially responsible for relationships with
>chapters, to announce this to you.
>
>Since it is a bit pointless to welcome someone already so involved in
>Wikimedia, please allow me to express my warmest congratulations to
>Delphine, I am looking forward to a fruitful cooperation :-)
