How much money does the wikimedia foundation have? How much money does OSMF have? At a guess, they have approximately 1,000 times our resources. Therefore, they have more hope in a fight like that. I'm not saying that's how it should be forever, or it's a wonderful situation, I'm just pointing out the realities of where we are right now.
