First off, we have a new Outreach Activities (formerly Online Events) Coordinator!

RL has eaten Liiane, and as such she's had to step down from her role as Outreach Activities Coordinator. Liiane has been on LoA for the past few months, and Xylina, as her assistant, has been leading the team in Lii's absence. We've all been impressed with the work Xylina has done in stepping up and making sure the Outreach Activities Team kept running and on track.

And so, it is my pleasure to announce Xylina as our next Outreach Activities Coordinator!

This is a bit atypical, as we did not open up applications for this role. Given that Xylina has already been essentially working in this role (albeit without the title), she has the experience, training, and success to back up any application she could have written, putting her ahead of other potential candidates. Moreover, because of the transition that the Outreach Activities Team is undergoing as we change departments, this decision will allow for the greatest continuity.

The Outreach Activities Team has already been informed of this decision, and they fully support Xylina in her new role. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me at outreach@tarvalon.net

Congratulations, Xylina! :joy


And second, we're hiring for the new Outreach Activities Team term!

Thanks to everyone who served during the Sprign 2011 Term! You did a great job! :grouphug

Thank you, Liiane Sedai, for all the work and dedication you put into transforming Online Events from the place-to-jump-in-just-long-enough-for-your-contribution to a real team, which allows it to flourish now as Outreach Activities. That wouldn't have been possible without you.

And congratulations, Wife Sedai! :D

And finally... come to me, my minions... :evil

Random question, but there's no date for when the applications are due in Kari's post. :scratch I'm not really interested in applying, but I think it might be good to have in there. :laugh:
