[Translators-l] Tech News transitioning to the CEP team

[Erica Litrenta]

Dear Guillaume,
words can't express enough gratitude for your hard work with Tech News,
and I'm sure that Wikimedians will equally support Johan as well as he
embarks on this new journey.

All the best,
E.

> Hello,

> VisualEditor) and it makes a lot of sense for them to also coordinate Tech
> News.

> Tech News, and he'll also be working with Nick Wilson (Quiddity). I hope

> dedicated to Tech News.
>
> I'll still be around on the mailing lists and the wikis during and after
> the
> transition, and I hope to continue to work with you on other projects.
