The Wikimedia '''Board of Trustees''' manages the foundation and supervises the disposition and solicitation of donations. The Board is the ultimate corporate authority for the Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. (cf. article IV, sec. 1 of the [[Wikimedia Foundation bylaws]]) and currently consists of [[#Current members|ten Trustees]].
 
== History ==
{{main|History of the Board of Trustees}}
The Board of Trustees began sometime in 2003 with three members. Over time, it expanded in size to its current ten members. Much of the body's history can be found in Board [[Resolutions|resolutions]] and votes.
 
== Roles and structure ==
As [[Bylaws#ARTICLE V - OFFICERS AND DUTIES|defined in the bylaws]], Board officers have one of four roles:
* [[Board member]]
* [[Treasurer]]
* [[Chair]]
* [[Secretary]]
 
== Current members ==
=== Marcin Jakubowski ===
Marcin came to the U.S. from Poland as a child. He graduated with honors from Princeton and earned his PhD in fusion physics from the University of Wisconsin. Frustrated with the lack of relevance to pressing world issues in his education, he founded Open Source Ecology in 2003 in order to make closed-loop manufacturing a reality. He began development on the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) (see http://vimeo.com/16106427), an open source DIY tool set of 50 different industrial machines necessary to create modern civilization. His main interest is evolving to freedom by eliminating resource scarcity as the main force behind geopolitical relations - with the wise use of modern technology adapted for human service.
