Sam, Thanks you for your views. Referring to the possible conflicts between Wikimedia and Quora, you say that "there is almost no current overlap between the organizations' main projects". Whether or not this is true right now, it is entirely possible that it may not be true in future, and I gave an example that you did not address (Knowledge Engine). The WMF is "dedicated to encouraging the growth, development and distribution of free multilingual, educational content, and to providing the full content of these wiki-based projects to the public free of charge", committed to "a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge" Quora's business is to "share and grow the world’s knowledge". It is not at all obvious to me that these can never be in conflict, indeed they seem quite remarkably similar, with the signficant exception of the profit element. Is there some demarcation agreement that we have not been told about?
