Dear %s,
BeWelcome in January is full of huge changes and the future of the project is at stake. Read about who's in charge, the appeal to members for support and help, blogging tool and more...

New BoD Chairman and the Future of BeWelcome

At the beginning of 2010, Florian (Kiwiflave) has resigned his position as Board of Directors chairman and the role was assumed by Thomas (tgoorden) - formerly vice-chairman. The change was brought about by Florian's personal reasons as well as his disappointment with BeWelcome inactivity. In Thomas' words:

"making BeWelcome work sometimes seems like an impossible task with very little in return"

To improve the situation and to gauge members' interest in the project Thomas wrote an appeal to the community and the response was overwhelming. Many of you expressed your support for BeWelcome as well as concerns regarding the functioning of the site. Read more here.
If you haven't received Thomas' letter, you can read it here and see what you can do to support us.

In reaction crumbking activated the the communication group and wrote down 10 easy things to spread the word about BeWelcome.org.

"The second problem did came in the night. A animal runs trough our place we did sleep. We did get realy alarmed and waked up. Than it started to shout like a dog who has a bad stomage and is getting out everything from him. It was unbelievable loud and sound realy dangerous. It was coming closer and closer." mabe
