I think David made an ironic reference to communism here :) The thing is, central planning works well for small-size entities. But is the WMF still a "small size entity"? They say they are, cos' their budget is so tiny etc., etc., but I think you can't expand worldwide and still call yourself small. It just doesn't make sense.
