Hi Tobi,

Sorry for the lack or response here! We are actively working on this,
and had hoped to have made an announcement already. As is often the
case, a few things ended up getting in the way...

It means is that the Board has been exploring the options.

We'll make a public announcement once the replacement has been signed
up, and we'll explain the reasoning behind the decision at that time.
Beyond that, it's hard to speak on behalf of the whole board. What I
would say, though, is that we have a duty to ensure the effective
running of the Foundation. The fact that we have been researching
possible candidates is a reflection of the fact that we take that
responsibility seriously.
