+The Technology team remains grateful to these invaluable programs and the many
+contributors, interns, and volunteers that they brought. Still, the
+contributions of our community far exceed our ability to document them. For a
+history of free/libre and open source work programs at CC, please see: [Open
+Source Work Programs: History — Creative Commons Open Source][history].

+
+Despite their ongoing success, the issues and problems that these work programs
+were created to address have only grown along with other changes in the
+technology industry. Their mission remains as important now, as ever. We hope
+their value will continue to be recognized.
+
+For our part, we can only hope that the resources we developed for engaging
+with these work programs might benefit others and that someday we might be able
+to participate again.
