+
+	  <p>The &os; Project is pleased to announce the completion of
+	    the 2016 Core Team election.  The &os; Core Team acts as
+	    the project's "board of directors" and is responsible for
+	    approving new src committers, resolving disputes between
+	    developers, appointing sub-committees for specific
+	    purposes (security officer, release engineering, port
+	    managers, webmaster, etc ...), and making any other
+	    administrative or policy decisions as needed.  The Core
+	    Team has been elected by &os; developers every two years
+	    since 2000.</p>
+
+	  <p>The &os; Core Team is glad to announce that
+	    <a href="mailto:matthew at FreeBSD.org">Matthew
+	      Seaman</a> will continue the role of
+	    <a href="mailto:core-secretary at FreeBSD.org">Core Team
+	      Secretary</a>.</p>
+
+	  <p>More information about the election (together with a list
+	    of the new members of the Core Team) can be found in the
+	    official <a
+	      href="&lists.announce;/2016-July/001732.html">announcement</a>.</p>
