At least in the U.S., per the National Labor Relations Act, employees are always allowed to discuss wages without fear of reprisal from their employers. So even if such a clause were to exist prohibiting such discussion, it would have no legal effect. -Madman/ea ___ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimedia Foundation's support of OTRS

But _somebody_ has to be supporting the technical portion of OTRS. If the Wikimedia Foundation can't/won't, someone else has to step in. That's where I thought the chapters or another movement player might be an option. Does anyone know what the status is of the OTRS project on Labs? Given a contact, I'd be happy to do what I can to help; I have some limited experience configuring/deploying OTRS (up until the end of the 3.0 branch last year, nothing with 3.1 or 3.2 unfortunately). I think opportunities for *volunteer* help have to consciously be maximized, especially for volunteers who are or are willing to be agents and/or identified to the Foundation. It's not going to get done otherwise. -Madman/ea ___ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
