    John Telting left the astronomy group after nearly five years of service at the ING. Although he left the ING, he is still regularly detected not far from his previous office, as he is now working at the Nordic Optical Telescope on La Palma.

    Saskia Prins, who worked for ING some time ago, has again strengthened the astronomy group carrying out part-time administrative support tasks.

    Roy Ostensen joined ING on a Marie-Curie Fellowship. Roy will be working in the area of adaptive optics, and in particular on aspects of astronomical exploitation of the NAOMI instrument.

    David González has filled a vacancy in the mechanical engineering section where he focusses on operational support activities.

    Big telescopes have exercised their attractive effect on Steve Magee. He will exchange the island of La Palma for the Hawaiian Big Island where he will start working for the Keck Telescopes.

    In the administration section María Batista commenced as part-time office assistant. You'll find her on the second floor of the Mayantigo building in Santa Cruz.

    The long-standing vacancy in the computer facilities group has finally been filled by Juan Vincente Piñero.

    Phil Symonds will be returning to the UK where he will be working at the UK Astronomy Technology Centre. We thank him for so many years of service at the ING.
