Agreed. Most of us are very concerned about the current state of affairs in the United States, but if you want to discuss that there are plenty of other venues where such discussion is not grossly off topic. Cheers, Craig Franklin On 30 January 2017 at 09:26, Thyge wrote:

Hoi, What I also said was that it is not good to expand the subject (in his own thread) and thereby making it too unwieldy. Yes, I am appalled by the current irrational behaviour and I did blog about this. But getting Mr Bannon into this as well is too much. It is a bad argument in this thread and

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Should the Foundation take a position on a general strike?

James There has always been control of travel into the United States. I have had a colleague arrested at the airport and deported for the "crime" of admitting that she expected to be paid by a university for a lecture she had been invited to give. That was a clear interference with the free

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Should the Foundation take a position on a general strike?

Hoi, Our movement is impacted by the new ukaze that prevents many of our staff going home for a holiday or see their family and it prevents many members of our movement to visit the office of the WMF. So it does have a serious and negative impact on our efforts. When there is a national strike,

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Should the Foundation take a position on a general strike?

In addition to my previous message This. Rogol asks a reasonable question here, and one that concerns me. The WMF wields tremendous influence, and attempts to hijack that influence - however well intentioned and well grounded - should always be stress tested. On Sun, Jan 29, 2017 at 9:49

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Should the Foundation take a position on a general strike?

I could see the Foundation making reasonable preparations against what may be inevitable - backing up servers, off-site contingencies, etc - but I do not see this as an issue where the WMF should be a leader in driving influence. The issue of a general strike is a generalized protest against

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Should the Foundation take a position on a general strike?

James, Is there any special relevance to the mission of the Foundation here, or this is simply an attempt to use the resources of the Foundation to gain publicity for a political cause that you personally favour? "Rogol" On Sun, Jan 29, 2017 at 5:41 PM, James Salsman
