Hi SFDers, The SFI annual meeting took place today, at which I stepped down as President and a new board was elected. Congratulations to the following people who will be taking charge of SFD in 2010: * Terri Molini * Pockey Lam * Alexjan Carraturo * Silvia Aimasso * Quiliro Ordóñez * Jan Husar* * JM Bitanga* * Frederic Muller* * Matt Oquist* (* denotes those who were re-elected to the board) Fred Muller was chosen to be the next President of SFI - congratulations to him and to all the other board members. I wish them luck in taking SFD to ever greater heights! I'd like to thank all those of you who've worked on events around the world to take software freedom to the masses; it's been very rewarding to represent SFD and make this fantastic global event happen every year. Please do give the new board your support, and if you'd like to see them do something differently - contact them and let them know!
