Re: [Wikimediaau-l] Apparently corrupt administration of this list

2014-03-16 Thread Adam Jenkins
Although I don't know the cause of Tony's problems, when I tried to get an automated email sent from the listserver just now, Gmail automatically transferred them into the social category so that they weren't visible, which initially led me to assume that they weren't making it through. Some email

The primary constraint for Wikimedia Australia in the past couple of years has been volunteer time, not money. I expect that that will continue to be the case for the next twelve to eighteen months at least. Perhaps part of the problem was that we did take that attitude, and it is true that an

2013-10-05 Thread Adam Jenkins
Hi! I was surprised to see that WMAU didn't put in an application for funding with the FDC in the October round. As a result, we won't be getting any funds from that route in 2013, especially as we didn't apply in the earlier round. As near as I can figure, we currently have commitments of at

Hi Tony, Just speaking for myself, I'm sorry to see you leave. I've been thinking of doing the same, although at the moment it would be more because of ongoing disillusionment than protest. (There have been a few occasions where it was the other way around). I'll hang around a bit to see where

Hi! Pru and I have previously discussed running a workshop, and I'd love to work with Janet on one. I have a venue that we can use if we don't want to run it in a library as such, but there is no problems if we wish to run it somewhere else. btw, Pru is a librarian and I'm teaching into the

Re: [Wikimediaau-l] open wiki editing for WMAU?

Hi, The part I'm not sure of is what parts of the Wiki people would wish to change. There are sections which clearly can't be publicly editable, such as the rules and minutes, but I'm assuming that there are other sections - perhaps events? - which would be of interest to non-members for
