 No bad words.  My phrase was לשון הרע, which is a legal term in Israel,
 originating in Jewish religious law[1], roughly equivalent to defamation or
 the Roman law 'calumnia', and I was advocating _avoiding_ that if anyone
 chooses to discuss this person (from the Hebrew Wikipedia's past) with the
 press.

Ops Engineer (offer pending) - remote, not relocating

Marc-Andre Pelletier, Software Engineer, remote

So the general answer is, yes, we're aggressively [*] looking
internationally, and we're aggressively hiring internationally, with
the caveat that some positions are strongly preferred to (ultimately)
be SF-based to function effectively.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Mid-Year Financial Statements

2013-03-12 Thread Thomas Dalton
Garfield,

Thanks for sharing the report. Once again, there is a significant
underspend. Does that concern you? It seems the WMF is consistently
not fully utilising its capital (so, either, you're fundraising too
much or doing too little). It often seems to be the case that the
underspend is due to not hiring new staff as quickly as expected. The
FAQ mentions that the plan was overly ambitious. Do you have a plan in
place to ensure your future annual plans include more realistic
projections of hiring and other spending?

Hey by the way, do you know good free/libre translation tools? 
Especialy when it come to idiomatic locutions, the best free(/non-libre)

I don't know for the statute of UN documents, but the idea to give you

Hi Everton,

I’m writing to you today about one of the Open Knowledge Foundation’s
projects *The Public Domain Review* which is in need of your support at a
crucial time.
 The Public Domain Review is a web-based journal showcasing the *most
wonderful and unusual out-of-copyright works available online*. Through its
curated collections and articles by leading scholars, writers, and
archivists it entertains and amazes us with the beauty and breadth of the
public domain -- *celebrating* and *raising the awareness* about the value
of our* shared cultural commons* at a time when it is increasingly under
threat.


http://okfn.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3f1f88a62b23f51641693977id=2d54b9d201e=b8ac17c531

With its initial funding now run ended, the Public Domain Review *urgently
needs your donations to continue its work*.



http://okfn.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a3f1f88a62b23f51641693977id=0de26f40a9e=b8ac17c531
The Review has been the brainchild of Adam Green who has dedicated immense
time and effort - most of it as a volunteer - to editing and curating the
Review over the last two years. The wonderful video calling for your
support is another entirely volunteer effort created under Adam's direction
(and featuring him in a starring role!).


 While operating on a minimal budget the Review has done an amazing job.
Highlights from last year include an article by *Man Booker prize winner
Julian Barnes* and attention from the likes of the *New York Times*,
*Huffington
Post*, *Vice magazine*, and the *Paris Review*.

 I therefore very much hope you will join me in supporting The Public
Domain Review and ensuring that it continues to showcase and celebrate the
incredible beauty and richness of the public domain.

 To *donate* or* learn more* about the fundraising campaign please visit:

Hey guys, in case you haven't seen School of Open launched its first set of 
courses today, including several on Wikipedia/Wikimedia: 
http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/37179.



Sign up for these facilitated courses
 this week (sign-up will remain open through Sunday, March 17). These
 courses will start the week of March 18 (next week!). To sign up, 
simply click the “Start Course” button under the course’s menu 
navigation on the left.
Copyright 4 Educators (US) – Sign up if you’re an educator who wants to learn 
about US copyright law in the education context.

Copyright 4 Educators (AUS) – Sign up if you’re an educator who wants to learn 
about Australian copyright, statutory licenses and open educational resources 
(OER).

Creative Commons for K-12 Educators – Sign up
 if you’re a K-12 educator (anywhere in the world) who wants to learn 
how to find and adapt free, useful resources for your classroom, and 
incorporate activities that teach your students digital world skills.Writing 
Wikipedia Articles: The Basics and Beyond – Sign up
 if you want to learn how to edit Wikipedia or improve your editing 
skills — especially if you are interested in and knowledgeable about 
open educational resources (OER) (however, no background in this area is
 required).
All other courses are now ready for you to take
 at any time, with or without your peers. They include:
Get a CC license. Put it on your website
 – This course is exactly what the title says: it will help you with the
 steps of getting a CC license and putting it on your work. It’s 
tailored to websites, although the same steps apply to most other works.
Open Science: An Introduction
 – This course is a collaborative learning environment meant to 
introduce the idea of Open Science to young scientists, academics, and 
makers of all kinds. Open Science is a tricky thing to define, but we’ve
 designed this course to share what we know about it, working as a 
community to make this open resource better.Open data for GLAMs
 (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) – This course is for 
professionals in cultural institutions who are interested in opening up 
their data as open culture data. It will guide you through the different
 steps towards open data and provide you with extensive background 
information on how to handle copyright and other possible issues.Intro to 
Openness in Education
 – This is an introductory course exploring the history and impacts of 
openness in education. The main goal of the course is to give you a 
broad but shallow grounding in the primary areas of work in the field of
 open education.A Look at Open Video
 – This course will give you a quick overview of some of the issues, 
tools and areas of interest in the area of open video. It is aimed at 
students interested in developing software, video journalists, editors 
and all users of video who want to take their knowledge further.
Contributing to Wikimedia Commons
 – A sister project of Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons is a repository of 
openly licensed images that people all over the world use and contribute
 to. This challenge gets you acquainted with uploading your works to the
 commons.Open Detective – This course will help you explore the scale of 
open to non-open content and how to tell the difference.


And more… check out all the courses at http://schoolofopen.org/.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Lessig on Aaron's laws

 I feel obliged to remind you of this splendid talk from Lessig on Aaaron's
 Laws.
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embeddedv=9HAw1i4gOU4
 
 Here you can find the transcript (with slides and everything)
 http://www.correntewire.com/transcript_lawrence_lessig_on_aarons_laws_law_and_justice_in_a_digital_age
 
 For what is worth, I found the talk extremely clever and lucid and moving.
 I'm not ashamed to say that I cried more than once. I really, really
 encourage you to see it, all of it.
 

Just a note for all of you: you should mention in the E-mail message
referencing the talk, what the talk is all about in a paragraph or two - you
can easily copy+paste it from the video description. This will motivate more
people to click the link instead of thinking to themselves What the hell is it
all about?.

That's good netiquette and good marketing.

Regards,

Shlomi Fish

I am certain that the badassitude of our award photo overwhelms any and all
skepticism the Internet might -- TOTALLY unjustly[1][2][3] -- feel about
SXSW.
