<div>I believe the board just passed the resolution.</div>
<div>Congratulations everyone, despite all our arguments and passionate disagreements we have worked together and done something amazing, it has been an absolute pleasure to work with everyone on this for the last almost two years over CWG and CCWG.</div>
<div>We should all be proud of what we have achieved here today.</div>

<div>Thanks very much for transmitting this proposal. I have forwarded it to the rest of the Board. We will process it later today at the public board meeting.</div>

</div>
<div>We will say thanks several more times, but we’ll start now: Thank you and everyone on the CCWG and all of the people who worked on this. This is a very good day.</div>
