For the editor, the Editorial Board and the Steering Committee, the major phase of our work is now completed. The fate of the Siddur from now on will be in the hands of the rabbis, the communities and all who come into contact with it. For all of us involved in this project over more than seven years, it has been a very important part of our lives, one of those rare opportunities to harness creativity, spirituality and practical skills in the service of our faith in God and the destiny of the Jewish people. Spelling this out sounds grandiose, but all of us have been touched by the seriousness of our task, and we can only pass it from our hands in the hope that it will touch the lives of others.
