Dear Patricio Lorente, I request that the WMF board take immediate action to publish a comprehensive account of why you appointed Geshuri as a trustee, despite his direct involvement and being named as a defendant in the on-going scandal of anticompetitive agreements at Google, or that Geshuri chooses to step down from his new position of trust.
This is being separated out as an open letter to the board in a new discussion thread, to avoid getting confused with other issues. In the light of recent challenges to the WMF with regard to a dramatic loss of confidence in their senior management and the politicking behind the loss of James Heilman as a trustee openly advocating for transparency to the actions of the WMF board, Geshuri's background with anticompetitive practices can only damage confidence in the WMF board with regard to their duty to hold WMF senior management to account and acting with the highest possible accountability and public transparency.
