Orsolya was Deputy Program Chair for WM 2012.
And James was the lead for WLM 2012.
So it's correct no matter what :)

Hi Nemo
I'll get straight to my point here before answering in-line. I see this as
yet another move to change or one-up the power structures at play here. WMF
created this FDC to evaluate chapter finances, FDC is still limited in what
they believe is their scope, WMF still has a great deal of cont

I'm quite surprised to constantly read FDC is somehow representative of the
larger community and accountable to them. Almost all the current members
were part of chapter leadership and have been quite active within that
circle. I suppose this is the same fiction as ch
A Wikimania committee has been formed to ensure that the legacy of knowledge
is effectively and efficiently passed on to the organising teams and to ensure
a smooth and successful Wikimania. For more details on the committee and its
charter see:

This seems like a preposterous proposition, if not for the distinct
recollection that this might have been insinuated by Ms. Gardner in the
discussion leading up to the formation of FDC. It still reads like a poorly
thought out attempt at some form of a coup or the making of one. This is as

Dear Dariusz,
dear other FDC members,
thanks for your brave and necessary step.

hi Nathan,
I'm not saying that the problems you're pointing out are non-existent.
Rather, I'd say that they are likely unavoidable. I'm not certain about
Western Europeans' solidarity anyway - I have serious doubts if any of the
Western European FDC members would have any preference for other West

Actually, I'd say that the opportunity for conflict of interest is
extremely high, and there's pretty much no way that the FDC can make
recommendations on the overall budget (and the very sizeable portion of

Well, this change won't make things perfect - there is still something of a
conflict of interest there and obviously the WMF board can choose to ignore
the FDC's recommendation altogether and award itself an unreasonably
generous budget. However, from last year's experience, where the WMF plan

Hi,
I've been aware of this brewing, but can only say that I'm pleased to
finally reach the surface. There is no good reason for part of the WMF's
budget to be privileged or quarantined from the same scrutiny that the rest
of movement spending is subjected to. I therefore urge Sue and the WMF to

hello,
