The Kuali Foundation would like to welcome 2 new key staff to the Kuali community. First, we welcome Zach Naiman as the new Kuali Member Liaison. Zach started in the position on 5/4, and will be helping Kuali with communications for internal collaboration and for outreach, and assisting in our use of tools and web sites to better facilitate our activities. Zach comes to us from the University of Arizona where he has been the Kuali Development Manager. Not only does Zach bring excellent organizational and communication skills, he has a sound technical background and understands enterprise systems and the community source approach. He has been a vocal supporter of Kuali. Many of you already know Zach because you've worked with him on various Kuali initiatives. Zach will be getting a new Kuali e-mail ID soon and will be in touch with many of you about some exciting projects we have in the works. Please join me in welcoming Zach to this new position!

We also welcome Graham Hall as the new Kuali Coeus Project Manager. Graham officially assumed the PM duties on May 1. Andy Slusar, who has been the KC project Manager since the inception of the project, has accepted a position with Cornell University to lead their implementation of the Kuali Financial System (KFS). We are excited that Andy will take this leadership role in making the KFS a success at Cornell. Graham comes to us from the challenging role of being the technical project manager for the Cornell PeopleSoft Student system implementation, so he is well versed in heading up large enterprise system projects. We welcome Graham to Kuali Coeus!
