Hello Jane,

The Code of Ethics looks very interesting. I may already have feedback as
an individual GLAM worker and Wikimedian. And I can imagine the GLAM-Wiki
community can co-ordinate a response too.

*Where* can/should we ideally post or send feedback? I couldn't immediately
find that in the link you posted. I can imagine it's beneficial if it's
public and interactive.

Best,
Sandra Fauconnier (User:Spinster on the wikis)
