Cheers. That says his first thought was to sue but he'd been told it probably wouldn't work - that's quite different to him actively considering suing (for a start, its not his decision, either Sue or the whole board would decide on the advice of Mike). I doubt that report had any influence on the IWF decision to withdraw. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
