The policy for fulfilling shell requests is and has always been that they will be fulfilled if agreement of the relevant community can be demonstrated, and they're technically acceptable and in line with wiki principles and so on (no $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;). The opinions of those outside the community are AFAIK not considered when fulfilling such requests, unless they point out technical problems or similar. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
