The FSWG deserves much thanks and kudos for making this happen (in no particular order):
Galen Charlton
Morgan McKeehan
Tim McGeary
Eric Lease Morgan
Coral Sheldon-Hess

They were diligent, thoughtful and probably MOST importantly, PERSISTENT. I genuinely believe that if Code4Lib survives for the next few more years, it will be thanks in big part to this team, the MOU and CLIR/DLF.

C4L has changed significantly from the "good ol' oughts" but it still grows, so it must be good for someone somewhere, no?

Thank you all again and congratulations!

Excellent news!

And a big Thank You to the Fiscal Sponsorship Working Group and to DLF for all of the hard work that has gone into this.
