We'd like to thank Djihed Afifi for taking the initiative to make this happen as well as all those that participated and helped on Arabeyes' various mailing-lists. For further discussions please use the 'general' or 'developer' mailing-lists.

Various tools will continue to be worked on until they are improved and streamlined for better user and administration experiences. If you have issues and/or are interested in such things, you are highly encouraged to subscribe to the admin mailing-list.

Thanks to all those that helped and for your continued support and understanding.

Core Management Team Changes

Tue, 26 Apr 2005 00:00:00 GMT

Arabeyes.org is pleased to announce the addition of two (yes two) new 'core' members to its management team. The two, in no particular order, are Samy Al-Bahra and Mohammed Sameer. They both join with an extensive history of development, project management and Open Source doctrine. The addition was prompted by Mohammed Elzubeir's recent resignation, a founder and a long time manager of the project, due to some pressing "life" issues and time constraints.

We thank Mohammed Elzubeir for his support and involvement over the years (and continue to expect it :-) for he was instrumental in the existence and survival of Arabeyes then and now and we welcome aboard our two new associates for a great deal is expected of them from the entire community.

Please join us in welcoming Samy and Mohammed to 'core'.
