Dear all, as a member of the board in question, i would like to explain more
But let's not pretend this is a question of a sudden need to set up a new mailing list. That's not what this is about (q) A. yep. totally agree. this all is about <u>searching for transparent and convenient forms of communication</u> especially within the chapter. but it is really difficult, it seems :(( (if possible at all) ...<u>and failing</u> we (as a community) were discussing: - a new mailing list (with a public archive), for announcements - if it is open, than looking for volunteers is easier, as one can offer help even if (s)he is not a member of the organization - to leave this mailing list (the one, that was 'switched to 'read-only' mode' by the board's decision) for talking - there are some people that are used to solving problems by talking them[problems] out-of-their-wits with a fair lot of letters (so to say) - to use irc channel for those wishing to hear answers ASAP and without being drown by e-letters (and publish these logs afterwards) the need was not sudden, but it was too late expressed. it just irritates people to get lots of letters and it irritates them to hear something critical or unpleasant... unfortunately, people TEND to act on their irritation thus the above-mentioned Board decision was made... (...) and we can assume the WMUA membership will judge their action as they see fit (q) A. and i do believe so best regards, antanana wikimedia Ukraine _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
