Several chapter representatives already consider WMF's grant programme dysfunctional. The centralisation plan requires the infrastructure to support it, and an assumption of reliability (which is a much stronger requirement than assuming good faith) on those expected to live substantially off grants assigned by the mechanism. But then, central planning is famous for its notable successes in economics. - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
