an update:
Pablo pointed to*Joan Gomà *, I think *Harel Cain* would also be
enthusiastic about DBpedia.
The vote is important as:
The Board of Trustees is the governing authority of the Wikimedia
Foundation. Responsibilities of the Board include:
* determining mission, goals, long-term plans and high level
policies of WMF and its projects
is the first entry on
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Board_elections/2011/en#Roles_and_responsibilities_as_member_of_the_Board
So this board determines how Wikipedia will develop.
Imagine right now: MediaWiki could just implement a simple content
negotiation and redirect to dbpedia for the rdf part. DBpedia and
Wikipedia Integration solved.
So I think we should pick a candidate and promote him via a blog entry
or so.
